0	Integer specifying that the ToolTip does not move away from the mouse cursor.

If avoidMouse is set to 1 and the user moves the mouse cursor away from the element and onto the ToolTip, the ToolTip disappears. If the property is set to 0, the ToolTip does not disappear when the mouse cursor moves directly from the element to the ToolTip.
