    Unhappy Re: Tooltip of system tray icon not shown

    Hi, I have a QSystemTrayIcon and I want to set a tool tip for it. This does not work in Windows 7, the tool tip does not appear when I hover over the icon.
    I'm using Qt 4.7 and I have tried the supplied "System Tray" example. The tool tip shows up in Windows XP/32bit but not in Windows 7/64bit, just like in my own program.

    Any ideas?

    It looks like it's a known issue:
