Adding ToolTip to WPF shapes

How do I add different tooltips to the shapes in the WPF zoomable canvas discussed in the msdn blog: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/kaelr/archive/2010/08/11/zoomableapplication2-a-million-items.aspx ?

I tried adding a tooltip using binding, but that doesn't seem to work. The shapes are added as list box items.

Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

That example is nothing like how I would have programmed it, but nevertheless it works. To add ToolTip's to that example do the following:

XAML

Add ToolTip to this Style

<Style TargetType="ListBoxItem">
   ...
   <Setter Property="ToolTip" Value="{Binding toolTip}"/>
</Style>


Code Behind

Add toolTip reference in GridLikeItemsSource.cs

public object this[int i]
{
   ...
   var height = rand.Next(50, 100);
   var toolTip = "ToolTip";
   ...
   return new { top, left, width, height, data, brush, i, toolTip };
}
