How to set the tooltip delay for one component only in flex?

The TooltipManager allows to set showDelay, hideDelay and scrubDelay properties. However, these are statics, so I assume they are global for all components in my application. I would like to change those values for 1 component only. How can this be done?

Not an answer to the question, but you can easily create a custom tooltip with PopUpAnchor, which gives you full control over its appearance and behaviour. If there's no easy fix for your problem, this might be the way to go. – RIAstar

It should work to register a ToolTipEvent.TOOL_TIP_START event on the component which sets ToolTipManager.showDelay to the preferred value, and a ToolTipEvent.TOOL_TIP_HIDE event which resets showDelay.
