I've noticed an issue in Silverlight 2 in which dynamically setting a tooltip (via the static ToolTipService methods) will erase any Style applied to the tooltip.

It was a problem in SL beta 2 and continues to be an issue in the release bits...

Any thoughts?

Mike,

I wonder if you could post another tip about how you could easily set the data context of the tooltip.  I haven't been successful in finding a decent way to get that to work and given that my tooltips all contain bindings, it is extremely frustrating.  It works perfectly in WPF without having to do anything, I wish Silverlight worked that way too!
