ToolTip versus Popup (WPF control)

popup, tooltip, wpf

Solution

A `ToolTip` is a small pop-up window that appears when a user pauses the mouse pointer over an element; the `Popup` control provides a way to display content in a separate window that floats over the current application window relative to a designated element or screen coordinate.

A `Popup` does not automatically open when the mouse pointer moves over its parent object. If you want a `Popup` to automatically open, use the `ToolTip` or `ToolTipService` class.
