Not sure what’s going on, but I added some text in the tooltips fields of some buttons, but nothing happens after I run my apps and hover over them. I don’t recall having to do anything special before to get these to work, but maybe I’m missing something? ---

You need to first instantiate the TooltipWindow class. See the documentation of this class. ---

I’ll check this out, strange, I recall never having to do this before in JUCE 4. I’d just put in the text in the ProJucer and it would work. Anyway, thank you. ---

Actually, I do recall doing this. My brain must be entirely fried from finals week! Man I feel silly.
