That is when the operator will bring the cursor on the I/O field the name of that I/O field will appear. This done by one line code (object properties-->Miscellaneous-->Tooltip text): ToolTipText_Trigger="my name Is tag1" Now what I want is: Background of the tooltip text should be Black. Font should be 12,bold, and white in color. Can I do this?? Regards, Manmeet.

This should work immediately. You can also change by registry but then you have to restart Windows to see the change.
