Tooltip Font Size

Is there a way to change the font size of a Tooltip?

The font size of the tooltip is different between Sesame runtime and preview mode. I like the way it looks in preview mode better. It's too large and obtrusive in runtime.

We are waiting to see whether people prefer the larger or the smaller font. I also like the smaller font, but other people find it hard to see/read especially on newer high resolution monitors.

Well... the smaller font matches all the Sesame menus (e.g. File, Edit, Macro, View, Help, etc) as well as the tooltip font used everywhere else in the OS and other programs. Undecided

Maybe the best solution is to have is defined by designer like is done with labels/text on LEs?
