      A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
      When displaying a medium weight tooltip in a custom location, specifically directly under the cursor location, causes the tooltip to redisplay over and over again.


      STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
      1. Cause tooltip to display directly under the cursor location
      2. make sure tooltip is medium weight
      3. once tooltip displays wait for timer to hide the tooltip
      4. wait again for initialDelayTimer to display it again
      tooltip will display over and over

      EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
      EXPECTED -
      tooltip should not redisplay after it has been hidden

      REPRODUCIBILITY :
      This bug can be reproduced always.
