I set the tooltips in my actions but they never show up. The only
tooltips that show are the ones I set in my RetargetActions. And If I
don't set it in the RetargetAction, I won't get a tooltip at all, even
if its set in the Action!

Any idea why this is???

I found it now. UndoRetargetAction is a LabelRetargetAction, while
CopyRetargetAction is a RetargetAction. LabelRetargetAction sets the
tooltip. I assume this is why none of the Actions I have used have had
their tooltips set from the action, but only from the RetargetAction.

I am just testing functions and I have only buttons at this point, but
their is no copy button. menuitems dont seem to have tooltips, but
buttons do. So its basically a mistake of my testing. Also I have a
lot of actions I need to change into LabelRetargetActions...

The Copy action and other global actions are defined in the workbench. I
have opened a bug in the past requesting that some global action allow
itself to be relabeled. I think in my case it was "Find/Replace", but I
wanted it to just be "Find".
