Remarks

COM Signature

From textmgr.idl:

HRESULT IVsTipWindow::GetContextStream(  
   [out] long *piPos,  
   [out] long *piLength  
);

The context stream is the position and length of text in the buffer that should not be obscured by the ToolTip window, but to which the content of the tip is related. This same region is also used to control how far the mouse cursor can be moved before the ToolTip window is dismissed or closed.
