Hi,

To automate/validate tooltips, you need to use "Instant Tracking" feature, as described here:

Hi odklizec

Hi have tried "Instant Tracking" feature but its not capture the tooltip text.
Please provide me any alternative

I'm afraid, I don't know any alternative. It's hard to say what could be wrong without more details about the app in question and its tooltip implementation.

What kind of technology is the app in question (wpf, java, mfc, qt, etc...)?
Could you please post a Ranorex snapshot (not screenshot) of the application, specifically the element with tooltip?
Ideally, could you please post a sample app with problematic tooltip (something like "hello world" with one button and tooltip)?
Also, what version of Ranorex do you use (latest is 6.0.1)?

Use instant tracking, and then while NOT moving your mouse and the tooltip is still present, hit the ScrollLock key to create a SnapShot of the current state. This will capture the tooltip properly. If you move the mouse, or switch to Spy before it is done creating the snapshot, your snapshot will not contain the tooltip. Either wait about 15 seconds (or more) for the snap shot to be created, or resize your app to take up part of the screen and Spy to take up part of the screen, and you can see what is going on.
