options | [optional] Sets different options for how the tooltip will be displayed (Can be added together): $TIP_BALLOON (1) = Display as Balloon Tip $TIP_CENTER (2) = Center the tip at the x,y coordinates instead of using them for the upper left corner. $TIP_FORCEVISIBLE (4) = Force the tooltip to always be visible confining it to monitor borders if necessary. If multiple monitors are used, then the tooltip will "snap-to" the nearest monitor. Constants are defined in "AutoItConstants.au3". |

To skip an optional parameter, leaving its default value intact, use the Default keyword.
If the x and y coordinates are omitted, the tip is placed near the mouse cursor.
A Tooltip will appear until the script terminates or ToolTip("") is called.
You may use @CR or @LF to create multi-line tooltips.
To display an icon, you must specify a non-empty title. The icon appears on the same row as the title and thus requires a title to be present.
If using the center flag, the center of the tooltip will be at the coordinates specified. If using the center flag with a Balloon Tip, the stem will be centered on the balloon and will point to the coordinates specified.
