Help Interface checkbox question

[AtheIstan]

Hey guys, I have a checkbox and I would like to add both string and tooltip to it. String contains the title of the checkbox and tooltip the description of it, but this combination of both doesn't work in game. It shows only the string and not the tooltip at all. Anyone know how I can make both work in a checkbox? I also checked all retail wnd and there is no checkbox with tooltip. Thank you

 

<CheckBox string="1595" CheckTexture="l2ui.test" UnCheckTexture="l2ui.test" isChecked="False">
      <DefaultProperties name="Cb_ShowMiniMap" tooltipType="Text" tooltipID="1596" alwaysOnTop="True" alwaysOnBack="False">
        <Size Absolute="True" width="180" height="15" />
        <Position offsetX="20" offsetY="15" relativePoint="TopLeft" anchorPoint="TopLeft" anchored="False" />
      </DefaultProperties>
    </CheckBox>

You can create a transparent button (without functions) on top of your text and have a tooltip for it.

It works now but when tooltip appears the checkbox can not be checked/unchecked, so I have to change its position to higher and doesn't look so good.

do it in interface.u, create an example customtooltip function, get the checkbox object, put it in a variable and load it into the customtooltip, and add your text.
