Global enable/disable for tooltips

[cappy2112]

I went to a lot of trouble adding tooltips to my widgets, now some
users don't like them.
Is there a 1-stop-shop to disable all the tooltips or do I need to
disable each one manually?
Ideally, I'd like to do this from a menu option- that part I can
figure out- if there is a way to globally enable/disable them.

Thanks

Hi,

Not that I'm aware of. You'll probably need to keep a list of the
widgets that get the tooltips and use that list to apply your settings
against.

The tooltip class has a static method that should do this try calling

wx.ToolTip.Enable(False)

To globally disable all tooltips

see the manual:
