You must have noticed that tooltips in Leopard are not similar to the ones in Tiger. These are in fact the expansion tooltips, created by default in Leopard. If you observe clearly, these strange tooltips are generated in tableviews only in case the string is too long.

//To disable default expansion tooltip in Leopard.
{ return FALSE; }
