Problem with multiline tooltip

[Wolfgang]

I love tooltips (although I have many open wishes, see here, here, here, here, here and here ) but now I have found a problem if one is using a tooltip that consists of more than one line and its control is located close to the bottom of the screen.

Tooltips are smart enough to move to the left if the tooltip text is too long to fit on the screen. However, the similar condition for a vertical move has been overlooked, so if the control is close to the bottom of the screen and the tooltip text consists of several lines it may happen that the lower lines are not displayed.

OK if panel / control is at the right end of the screen:

Not OK if the panel / control is at the bottom of the screen:
