' Postconditions:

'       (1) Bubble ToolTip is shown.

'       (2) Bubble ToolTip is hidden.

Sub main()

   
    Dim swApp As SldWorks.SldWorks
    Set swApp = Application.SldWorks

    ' Show Bubble ToolTip
    swApp.ShowBubbleTooltipAt2 300, 400, swArrowLeftTop, "Sample Bubble Tooltip", "Message of Sample Bubble ToolTip", swBitMapUserDefined, "C:\Program Files\SOLIDWORKS Corp\SOLIDWORKS\data\user macro icons\questionmark.bmp", "", 0, swLinkStringNone, "", ""   

    Stop
   
    swApp.HideBubbleTooltip
    
 

'--------------------------------------------

If PointX and PointY are both set to 0 and TitleBitmapID is swBitMapTreeError and a PropertyManager page is displayed, then the bubble ToolTip will appear in the same location as the SOLIDWORKS user-interface Rebuild Errors bubble ToolTip. You must specify both TitleBitmapID and TitleBitmap values.

The Cookie, LinkStringID, LinkString, and Callback parameters are intended for use by add-in applications to display a hyperlink in the bubble ToolTip that, when clicked, calls a function to do something outside of the application; for example, open the add-in application's Help system.
