Users can display Tooltips over tabs in the DockingTab control. Tooltips can be enabled by setting the [ShowToolTips](/componentone/docs/win/online-command5/) property to True. The [C1DockingTabPage](/componentone/docs/win/online-command5/) class provides the [ToolTipText](/componentone/docs/win/online-command5/) property to set the tooltip for each tab in the DockingTab control.
