Calendar Multiline Tooltip

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Hi,

I have searched this forum and found that this problem has plagued others. I am trying to display a custom tooltip that uses multiline but can't get any of the workarounds to work!!!

When using vbCr, vbLf, vbCrLf or vbNewLine it doesn't create the desired effect, instead it displays them as block characters instead of performing their function on the tooltip display.

I would be grateful if anyone has a method of doing this 

Please see the below screenshot for the issue described:

	Ok, I have had a reply from the Codejock Support team and have the solution for this issue. I have posted the solution below for anyone else who had this issue. Solution: You have to use GetItemText event (and set corresponding flag in AskItemTextFlags property) EXAMPLE: CalendarControl.AskItemTextFlags.SetFlag xtpCalendarItemText_EventToolTipText (P.S.* I set this call in the Calendar mousemove event)* Private Sub CalendarControl_GetItemText(ByVal Params As XtremeCalendarControl.CalendarGetItemTextParams) If Params.Item = xtpCalendarItemText_EventToolTipText Then Params.Text = "ID = [" & Params.ViewEvent.Event.Id & "] " & vbCrLf & Params.ViewEvent.Event.Subject & _ vbCrLf & Params.ViewEvent.Event.Location & vbCrLf & Params.ViewEvent.Event.Body End If End Sub
