Tooltip doesn't show with own component

Question

Hello,
I have my own component that paints some rectangles to a
canvas. Now the problem is that I can't see the tooltip over my
object. Here is wat I do
var record:SessionRecord = new SessionRecord();
record.height = TIMELINEHEIGHT;
record.width = data.SESSION_TIME*TIMELINE_SECOND;
record.x =
((data.SESSION_START_SEC*TIMELINE_SECOND)+MARGINLEFT)/2;
record.y = yCanvasPointer/2;
record.toolTip = "blabjdsqodhqhjiouqh";
record.enabled = true;
canvas.addChild(record);
I've implemented the get/set method of the tooltip in my
component class (actionscript class).
public override function get toolTip():String
return this.tooltipText;
public override function set toolTip(value:String):void
this.tooltipText = value;
Anybody any idea ?
Thanks!

IToolTipManagerClient interface:
IToolTipManagerClient - Indicates that a component has a
toolTip property, and therefore is monitored by the ToolTipManager.
So maybe if you implement this interface you will have
tooptip support.
This is the interface I implemented (specifying the get/set
tooltip methode)...
