Question

I have a NSStatusItem to which I’ve added a tooltip using the setToolTip: method.

Everything works, except that the delay before showing the tooltip seems to be about 3 seconds, which is not ideal for my application.

Is there a way to change the delay before the tooltip is shown? Ideally, I’d like the delay to be 0 (i.e., the tooltip is immediately displayed when the user hovers over the icon).

Try this

[[NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults] setObject: [NSNumber numberWithInt: 1]
                                          forKey: @"NSInitialToolTipDelay"];
