if anyone still have this issue: Beauty Tips version 0.9.5 fixes this issue. however if you have to use earlier version (like i do, as the new version introduced an issue of tips being closed prematurely in my page), you should replace line 530 with these lines:

var canvas = document.createElement('canvas');  
$(canvas).attr('width', (numb($text.btOuterWidth(true)) + opts.strokeWidth*2)).attr('height', (numb($text.outerHeight(true)) + opts.strokeWidth*2)).appendTo($box).css({position: 'absolute', top: $text.btPosition().top, left: $text.btPosition().left, zIndex: opts.boxzIndex});

hope it helps.
