CommandBar lost focus event

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

   When a statusbar is linked to a commandbar and you mouse over any controls in the commandbar the control's DescriptionText property is displayed in the statusbar's IdleText property. So for my MDI form when a user puts the mouse over a commandbar control in a child form I use the ControlSelected event to pass through the control's DescriptionText property to the MDI form statusbar IdleText. The problem I am having is when you move the mouse off the commandbar the IdleText is still set (which is correct as the statusbar belongs to a different form).

I wanted to be able to trap when a user moves the mouse off a commandbar control, I have tried the TrackingModeChanged event but it doesn't fire when an individual control loses focus.

Is there an event that will do this?
