Could try updating your common controls library. LM requires it to be version 4.7 or higher for tool tips. Although every version of windows since Win95B should have that...
The Map16 window doesn't have tool tips, because I just never saw enough need for it.

Well, sometimes the tooltip doesn't appear for me either (but after I try a couple of times, it works again).
My tip is that you check in the GFX files for some unused space so you could write stuff on 4 tiles, like "Hidden Vine" or stuff. Give the block those graphics and when it's finished, just change it back to invisible.
However, this would be easier if FuSoYa finds a big bug in LM, makes a new version and adds a function. That function would allow you to make the blocks look like this in LM and like that in the game. (Like... you could set it up so it looks like a stone block in LM, but in the game, it's invisible) Sorta like the Sprite MAP16...
Anyway... While talking about tooltips... Why aren't there any tooltips in the MAP16 window? |

Well it would seem that all manner of tooltips have disappeared from LM. For a while, they wouldn't work in any program, except that in LM if I hovered over an object, sometimes one would show up. I reinstalled Windoze, and now they work in everything except LM. It used to still be that they'd appear when I hover over an object, but now that's not even happening, there are none whatsoever.  Kinda makes it absolutely impossible to tell what invisible blocks do. |
