Hi,

An exception is raised when using a floating ToolWindows containing ToolStrip.

To reproduce it,

* In a floating window : display the tooltip of the toolstrip
* dock the ToolWindow
* Try to display the same tooltip

The following exception is raised :

Cannot access a disposed object.
Object name: 'fy'.

Any idea to solve it ?

Yes, this issue can easily be duplicated without even using our controls and just moving the ToolStrip to different parent Forms. Unfortunately we have not found a workaround for it since the bug is so deep in Microsoft's code.
