I have a control (derived from Control class) based on SysListView32. The
LVS_EX_INFOTIPS style is ON.

I select an item and hover mouse over it to shows its infotip. Then I move
mouse outside the control and use the arrow keys to select a different item.
Now, the tooltip for the item appears in the *top-left corner* of the screen
(0,0) instead of below the selected item.

This strange behavior only occurs if XP themes are enabled.

Any suggestions on what might be causing this?

Thanks
Bob
 
Any help?

Some more info :
This happens only in VS 2005 projects with XP themes ON.
This does NOT happen in VS 2002/2003 even if XP themes are ON.
