Stop ribbon item tool tip text from wrapping?

[Mark B]

2007 VSTO C#.

We have some tool tip text for onmouseover of one our custom 2007 ribbon
icons:

-----------------------------------
Division: Northern Region
Plant Manager: Fred Smith
Plant Manager Comment: Please deliver all incoming stock to gate A
Courier: DHL
Secondary: Fedex
Delivery Instructions: Deliver to second entrance after Building C
-----------------------------------

What's happening is that Outlook is wrapping the text at will resulting in
layout not clean as above:

-----------------------------------
Division: Northern Region
Plant Manager: Fred

Comment: Please deliver all incoming stock to gate A
Courier: DHL Secondary: Fedex
Delivery Instructions: Deliver to second entrance after Building C
-----------------------------------


Is there a way to either increase the width of the yellow tool tip box or
stop wrapping?

Or should we rather use a custom popup window so we can have full control
over the layout? If so do we need and is there a way to stop the tool tip
itself from appearing?

TIA

When you supply the text for that are you providing newlines where you want
line breaks to occur? Use Environment.Newline for that.

All is well -- I found that I could use the ScreenTip property (which
creates a bold header for the SuperTip) to control the width of the
SuperTip. e.g.

"My long heading text forces the width
"
