hi

i make it short. i have 3 buttons with different tooltips.
Tooltip 1 = hello
Tooltip 2 = world
Tooltip 3 = Tooltip 1 + Tooltip 2

how to create tooltip 3 without manually typing "hello" "world". <d ref doesnt work because it seems to reference only doubles.
thx in advance

yeah that's right and then i can add it with catalog triggers but that's not exactly what i wanted. now the full story.... :d
i want an actor to show dynamic floating text, since i cannot change the text of the actor by triggers i simple link to a text of a button.
( for example : button A has tooltip button/tooltip/a, and so has the actor)
so far so good, but if i change the tooltip text to something else the actor still shows the old text of button/tooltip/a, if i use a test trigger to show the tooltip it shows me the new text. it somehow doesnt refresh the text. so my idea was to have a "pointer" inside the tooltip but i only now of <d ref .. data reference i guess and data seem to be only real values.
