Multi state button - tooptip per button

Ignition
1

Using IA ver 7.9.6; our application is mainly historical charts and tables.

We have a four-button ‘multi state button’. We use tooltip text extensively to assist users. However, problem with the multi-state button is we have the same tooltip displayed when the user hovers over any of the four buttons comprising the multi-state button. How would we add properties/scripting/ or etc to the multi-state button so that we could configure individual tooltip text for each?
thank you,
Paul

The tooltip property is bindable like any other text property, so you can use an expression to yield the appropriate string from your current state. If you are using styles based on that current state, you can add the tooltip to the styled properties.
