		<description>While not the perfect solution, I did find a way to cheat.  

Create a canvas box to meet the size requirements and populate it with the desired fields.  Then when I mouseOver the appropriate dataGrid column, it dynamically fills out the canvas with the data associated with the highlighted person.  When I mouseOut, it hides the canvas.  It&#039;s about as much like a toolTip as it can be without actually being one.</description>

		<description>I&#039;m searching for something fairly specific and your example is the closest I&#039;ve found yet.  I&#039;m most interested in the ability to place an image inside a ToolTip.  Very cool stuff.  I have all of the code examples in place but my difficulty is that my ToolTips are tied to images in a four-column DataGrid instead of a button.  

My DataGrid uses the itemRenderer and passes text to it.  I evaluate the text by this._listData.label and set this.toolTip=&quot;whatever&quot;; based on what text was passed to the itemRenderer to begin with.  It doesn&#039;t let me state this.toolTipCreate or this.toolTipShow as a button or image normally would.

Any idea how to get it to work?  Essentially, I&#039;m building an IM front-end that when rolling over the name, displays information about the user in a tooltip.  Or at least that&#039;s my hope.</description>

		<description>I can&#039;t tell you how useful these examples are for we noobs.  Thanks you!

Though the comment above it says otherwise, your skin code assumes the border color is black though:

gr.beginFill(0x000000, 1);


I&#039;m retrieving it dynamically:
var borderColor:uint = getStyle(&quot;borderColor&quot;);
...
gr.beginFill(borderColor, 1);</description>

		<description>Hi 
great article!
i have a question too:
how can you change the tooltip&#039;s visibility from another class?
Eg i want a custom logic when to show tootips, like show if the button&#039;s x coordinate is &gt;100</description>

		<description>Just came up with an optimization for your MyPanelSkin:

&lt;code&gt;
public class MyPanelSkin extends HaloBorder
{
    override mx_internal function drawBorder(w:Number, h:Number):void
    {
        super.drawBorder(w,h);
        var gr:Graphics = graphics;
        gr.beginFill(0x000000, 1);
        gr.moveTo(x, y + 7);
        gr.lineTo(x-11, y + 13);
        gr.lineTo(x, y + 19);
        gr.moveTo(x, y + 7);
        gr.endFill();
    }
}
&lt;/code&gt;</description>
