I am using the DevExpress TaskbarAssistant class and created a custom jump list category which holds some JumpListItemTask objects. Is it somehow possible to show a tooltip for such an entry in the jump list which is different from the caption of the entry?
My use case is to show file names in the jump list. The tooltip of an entry shall show the full path of a file. Any way to accomplish that?
Thanks!
We have implemented the functionality described in this ticket. It will be included in our next update(s).

Hello Michael,
The TaskBarAssistant component uses native API to build jump lists. We have researched whether it is possible to create a tooltip using this native API and found that this capability is available. Unfortunately, at present our component does not support it. I am going to pass your ticket to our developers. We will consider introducing a functionality to set a custom tooltip to a jump list item.
We will update this ticket as soon as this functionality is available in TaskBarAssistant.
