Hi Oleg, I try to add tooltip in a Dialog button, now it's work. but i want to change style to another style, it's can't work. (like Standard style -> xtpToolTipOffice2007) i have try ToolTipContext_vc90 this sample, but in my opinion it can only change in commandbar's component. (i don't know how to use like "CXTPCommandBars* pCommandBars = GetCommandBars();" in Dialog based) can you give me a sample or help me to change style at button's tooltip thank you very much james |

Hi,
ToolTipContext samples also demonstrates hwo to enable tooltips for Dialog controls too.
You need same lines:
EnableToolTips(); m_moduleContext.SetModuleToolTipContext(); m_moduleContext.SetStyle(xtpToolTipOffice2007); m_moduleContext.SetMaxTipWidth(200); ------------- Oleg, Support Team CODEJOCK SOFTWARE SOLUTIONS |

Hi, See PropertiesDialog.cpp code and its CPropertiesDialog::OnToolHitTest method. ------------- Oleg, Support Team CODEJOCK SOFTWARE SOLUTIONS |

 This does not work at all. I have the same problem. It appears as if only standard tips are supported in Dialogs e.g. you cannot set something like Luna or Office2007 as styles for dialogs. This is a serious shortcoming as it would be nice to have the same 'look and feel' for tooltips across an application.

I can't get this to work either. Oleg, it is possible to have a toolbar in a dialog support the Office2007 theme (with title and desciption, etc.)? The sample does NOT achieve this. |

| I have been using the latest version (13.4.0) and this has not yet been implemented. A 'cluncky' workaround is to use Markup tooltips, e.g. using a StackPanel and Textblocks to produce the same 'look and feel' e.g. a title and description. The problem is that the markup tooltips are fully under your control, so they do look slightly different to the rest of the system. The optimum way would be for CJ to implement tooltips fully across all windows/toolbars. |
