    Posted: 09 May 2007 at 4:53am
Hi,

In a CXTPReportView, is it possible to get a multilines tooltip for a record.

I don't want to use multilines row record, but I want to get a multilines tooltip when the mouse cursor is over the record.

thanks & regards,

Matt

Hi,

Did you try to set tooltip using SetTooltip method?

Perfect! Thanks 

Just one question: why the default tooltip is single line? Is it not better to get a multilines tooltip every time?

I'm curious about this,  as I was looking through the documentation and didn't see what you guys were talking about.

Are you just passing in '\n' characters in your tooltip to where you want the break?

Sorry, but I don't undestand how to add a multiline tooltip to a record item.
 
I tried to use SetToolti( "string1\r\nstring2" ). But it doesn't work. Single line is displayed, \r and \n are replaced with wrong characters.
 
Could you help me?

Hi,

Open our ReportSample. I've just successfully tried the following:

CMessageRecordItemPrice::CMessageRecordItemPrice(double dValue)
: CXTPReportRecordItemNumber(dValue, _T("$ %.2f"))
{
    SetTooltip(_T("this\r\nis multiline\r\ntooltip"));
}

I tried the same samples but on my pc it doesn't work. Tooltip has only one line: I have square inplace of new line.
 
Could it be I have an old version of Codejock sofware? My library version is 10.4.
 
Do you have any idea why?

You must set the Balloonstyle-Tooltip (Paintmanager).
Other kinds of tooltips don't support multilines (Windowsproblem!).

Hello,
 
If you need this feature you have upgrade. 10.4 was released December 16, 2006.
