ToolTips have 3 delay times that can be changed. I'm not sure how you would go this using the AutoIt ToolTip command as it appears to be a wrapper around the Windows ToolTip control. If you use Sleep between two ToolTip commands, your app will be hung for 5 seconds. This may or may not be a problem, depending on what you are doing. You could probably do something with the AdLib command to monitor whether a ToolTip is being displayed and have it turn it off. If none of those options will work for you, you can use Auto3Lib to generate a native Windows ToolTip control that will allow you to change the delay times that I mentioned.

You trying to just make a tooltip show in a random place or over a control? There's always GuiCtrlSetTip.

_ToolTipTimer(5000, 'Just a test', 0, 0)
$iCC = 0
While 1
    $iCC += 1
    ToolTip('Actual Script:' & @CR & 'Count = ' & $iCC, 0, 20)
    Sleep(1000)
    If $iCC = 5 Then Exit
WEnd

Func _ToolTipTimer($iTime, $sText, $xCoord = '', $yCoord = '', $sTitle = '', $hIcon = '', $iOpt = '')
    Local $sSend, $hFile = @TempDir & '\TTTAU3.txt', $iPID
    $sSend = '#NoTrayIcon' & @CRLF & "ToolTip('" & $sText & "'," & $xCoord & ',' & $yCoord & ',"' & _
            $sTitle & '","' & $hIcon & '","' & $iOpt & '")' & @CRLF & 'Sleep(' & $iTime & ')'
    FileClose(FileOpen($hFile, 2))
    FileWrite($hFile, $sSend)
    $iPID = Run('"' & @AutoItExe & '" /AutoIt3ExecuteScript "' & $hFile & '"', '', @SW_HIDE)
    ProcessWait($iPID)
    Return FileDelete($hFile)
EndFunc
