I am having a problem with the shape tooltips and how they are displayed.
I have a list of shapes that I am updating the map with every 0.5 seconds. The problem arises if the user is mousing-over one of the shapes when it is removed / re-added to the map. I would expect it to take a bit of time for the tooltip to reappear because it has to register a new mouse-over, but for some reason the tooltip is being drawn at the "end" of the website; that is, below everything else, for a split second before re-appearing at its correct location.
Is there a way to prevent this from occurring?
If not, is there a way to tie the appearance of the tooltip to some event besides the mouse-over?
Thanks

The issue is released to the fact that you are refreshing the shapes on the map every 5 seconds. This will cause all existing shapes to be removed, and the "new" ones replotted. A side effect of this will be that any shown InfoBox will be hidden.

I understand that the tooltips will be replotted and thus will not appear for a moment, but the issue is that when they are redrawn they are appearing outside of the map component -at what you could refer to as the "end" of the page- for a fraction of a second before being seemingly "moved" to the correct location.

I've never seen the behavior you've described of the Pushpins being placed "at the end of the page". However, the actually plotting/displaying of the Pushpins on the Map is handled by the Bing Maps JavaScript Control, and if there is an issue with this, it would be within Microsoft code for the JavaScritp Map Control.
Let me know if you can repeated duplicate this, and I'll try to figure out what's exactly causing it.
