in reply to Perl Tk - Varying balloon message on optionmenu

Can any wise Monk explain how to get a different message for each option on the pull-down menu?

Try  $balloon->attach( $menu->menu, -balloonmsg => [qw(a b c d)], ); as per Re^6: Balloon and menus options

It doesn't work on windows, this is a bug

    I tried the suggested line. No more errors but nothing was shown as a balloon. Therefore it looks like a bug!
