Record item tooltip with Caption + Description?

how do you fill the item out? There are 2 prototypes for

CXTPToolTipContext::FillInToolInfo

which you call from within your OnToolHitTest function.

(neither of which seem to be in the documentation BTW). The second one takes 3 strings, tooltip (leave empty), title and description.

This is rather hacky! Is there another way?

yeah, looks like CJ code won't support title and description no matter what...

INT_PTR CXTPReportRow::OnToolHitTest(CPoint point, TOOLINFO* pTI)
{
     CRect rcItem;
     CXTPReportRecordItem* pItem = HitTest(point, &rcItem);

     if (!pItem)
          return -1;


     INT_PTR nHit = pItem->OnToolHitTest(point, pTI);
     if (nHit != -1)
          return nHit;

     nHit = (INT_PTR) pItem;
     CString strTip = pItem->GetTooltip();

     m_pControl->OnGetToolTipInfo(this, pItem, strTip);

     if (strTip.IsEmpty() || strTip == _T(" "))
          return -1;

     if (m_pControl->GetPaintManager()->m_bCleanTooltip)
     {
          //Clean markup
          CString s(strTip), u, v;
          int j = s.Find(_T("<"));
          int k = s.Find(_T(">"));
          while (j > -1 && k > -1)
          {
               u = s.Left(j);
               v = s.Mid(k + 1);
               s = u + v;
               strTip = s;
               j = s.Find(_T("<"));
               k = s.Find(_T(">"));
          }
     }

     CXTPToolTipContext::FillInToolInfo(pTI, m_pControl->m_hWnd, rcItem, nHit, strTip);

     return nHit;
}

I think codejock needs to go through all their code wherever it calls CXTPToolTipContext::FillInToolInfo, and make sure it's compatible with the concept of a caption and tooltip (2 strings).

I even had to derive from CXTPButton in order to get tooltips like this without having to have text on the button face itself.
