This version of the overloaded Show method operates identically to the Show(String^, IWin32Window^, Point, Int32) version, except that the offset is specified as separate x and y coordinates instead of a Point. To display the ToolTip modally, call the Show(String^, IWin32Window^, Int32, Int32) overloaded version of this method instead.
Applications running in partial trust must assert the AllWindows permission to use this method, as Show can control the display and location of a ToolTip independent of user action.
Requires AllWindows permission.
