Re: custom Tooltip

First, it doesn't matter which Control is used.
Secondly, there should be a reference to Canvas.
Replacing this to GameObject and setting the wrong reference, you broke the logic of the script.
Bring it back to Canvas, and set the correct reference.

Re: custom Tooltip

So any suggestion what to do ?

Re: custom Tooltip

Texture Control is not a UI element. Why did you place this in a Canvas?

Create a second Canvas with Render Mode - Screen Space - Overlay, and use this as a container for tooltips.
