description and tip

[meghna]

I am giving a tip to one control on the front panel. But, it doesn't show me the tip each time I run a VI. If I right click & pop up menu, then tip displays otherwise it is not showing tip. I have also tried to give tip programatically. But, same problem exists. If there is no loop delay even of 10 ms, it works fine. What may be the problem?

I use a virutal window program on my computer, and I could not get the tip strips to work until I turned the program off. The tip strips then worked like a champ--they showed up when you program was running and when editing. I changed the wait in your program to zero ms and 5000 ms and with both waits, the tip strips worked. I am using LabVIEW 6.1 on Windows 2000.
