Ribbon.AllowToolTip Property (ExRibbon)

By default, the AllowToolTip property is True. Use the AllowToolTip property on False, to prevent shown the item's tooltip when the cursor hovers the item. The Tooltip property assigns a HTML tooltip to an item, that's displayed only when the cursor hovers the item. The TooltipTitle property specifies the title for the item's tooltip. The TooltipDelay property specifies the time until the tooltip is shown. Use the ToolTipPopDelay property specifies the period in ms of time the ToolTip remains visible if the mouse pointer is stationary within a control. Use the ToolTipWidth property to specify the width of the tooltip window. The ToolTipFont property specifies the tooltip's font. Use the Background(exToolTipAppearance) property indicates the visual appearance of the borders of the tooltips. Use the Background(exToolTipBackColor) property indicates the tooltip's background color. Use the Background(exToolTipForeColor) property indicates the tooltip's foreground color.

How do I disable showing the tooltip for all control?
