Hi,

Here little workaround class:

template
class CToolTipRouter : public T
{
BOOL OnWndMsg(UINT message, WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam, LRESULT* pResult)
{
  CXTPCommandBar* pCommandBar = DYNAMIC_DOWNCAST(CXTPCommandBar, GetParent());

  if (pCommandBar)
  {
   pCommandBar->FilterToolTipMessage(message, wParam, lParam);
  }

  if (message == XTP_TTM_WINDOWFROMPOINT)
  {
   *pResult = 1;
   return TRUE;
  }

  return CWnd::OnWndMsg(message, wParam, lParam, pResult);
}
};

Now replace your m_MyControl declaration in mainfrm.h from

CMyClass m_MyControl;

CToolTipRouter<CMyClass> m_MyControl;

One workaround would be to use a "normal" handling of tooltips for that single custom control of mine. Is there any commandbar-based solution for this?

Toolbar tooltip for custom controls : Hello,I've added my own control...

Hello,

I've added my own control into an XTP toolbar through CXTPControlCustom, but setting a tooltip text for this control just doesn't display any tooltip.

        CXTPControlCustom* pControlEmbedder = CXTPControlCustom::CreateControlCustom(&m_MyControl);
        pControlEmbedder->SetTooltip(_T("My Tooltip Text"));
        m_pMyToolbar->GetControls()->Add(pControlEmbedder);

Do you have any idea what's wrong with this? Do I have to handle tooltips of my control window on my own?

Thank you for any suggestions, in advance!
