ControlTipText not shown when control on Rectangle

Some of my ControlTipTexts were not being shown and I was scratching my head
to figure what the difference was between them and the 'good ones'. After a
while I realized that the failures were within a Rectangle control. I moved
the rectangles and hey presto the ControlTipText is shown.

Must be a MS bug surely.

Either select the rectangle and choose "Format - Send to Back" or select the
object within the rectangle and select "Format - Move to Front".

Thanks for that, it's pretty obvious, I shoulda scratched my head a bit harder.
