ToolTip for Rectangle Label

[sd59]

I have a row of dynamic rectangle labels drawn on a chart as above - they change size with certain data that is generated by price which works fine.

I would like to display their value by hovering the mouse above the label so I am using the 'ToolTip' function.

 ObjectSetString(0,rectname,OBJPROP_TOOLTIP,rect_data);

When I hover the mouse over the object it shows the default terminal message 'RectangleLabel'.

Can anybody explain why this doesn't work please?

thanks
