What steps will reproduce the problem?

at beginning or middle of part of word (as if to correct misspelling or cut on 
word out) 
2.  Click more than once on search words.Try to right click and cop.
3.  Click in pane underneath and try again.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

the end of the string.

That's standard Windows behaviour: if we want a tooltip, we can't get it any 
other way.

However, I'm going to go out on a limb and say that the tooltip itself is 
probably unnecessary and doesn't add a lot to the application.  If that's the 
case we should just be able to remove the tooltip and hope people know what 
they are doing.

Did you watch the video? I am not talking about normal tooltip behavior, but 
about it being in the way of the words in the search bar, rather than hovering 
below it as in other programs.

I watched the video, and repeat what I said: the tooltip is a tooltip on the 
textbox.  That is the way tooltips on textboxes work in Windows.  If we want to 
avoid it, then we have to remove the tooltip.  As it is not very useful, it 
seems sensible to remove it.

Well any pop up on mouse hover i get, from the Windows TaskBar FF to OpenOffice 
to other Bible programs to RefTagger, etc.  is always below or above the 
location of the word, or icon, not obscuring part of it.
