Is it possible to customize the tooltip control to host other components and user controls? I need to display a chart and some text boxes when I hover around a particular cell on the grid.
Hello ,
Tooltip is design to display some predicative text and as extra it display picture and formatted text. This is the main goal of the tooltip, so currently tooltip do not support such functionality to host a control, but in your case you could consider using UltraPopUpControlContainer like an alternative of tooltip. More about UltraPopUpControlContainer you could find here:

if you use UltraPopUpControlContainer, you will be able to host a custom control and to display as popup on the desired screen position with Show (Point location) method of UltraPopUpControlContainer. http://help.infragistics.com/Help/NetAdvantage/WinForms/2011.1/CLR2.0/html/Infragistics2.Win.Misc.v11.1~Infragistics.Win.Misc.UltraPopupControlContainer~Show%28Point%29.html
please let me know if you have any further questions.
