ToolTip Problem

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

   I have a toolbar with one button created by:
 if(lpCreateControl->nID == ID_MRUHOST)
      {
      lpCreateControl->controlType = xtpControlSplitButtonPopup;
      return(TRUE);
      }

This works ok, but I do not get a tooltip displayed for this button.  The id is ID_MRUHOST, and it has an associated tooltip string in the resource file.  Tooltips are displayed correctly for all the other buttons on the toolbar.  What needs to be done to get the tooltip displayed?
It would also be very useful if the XTPToolTipContext would allow for the setting the delay times as can be done in the standard MFC CToolTipCtrl using the SetDelayTime() function passing TTDT_INITIAL and TTDT_AUTOPOP.

	Agree, it looks like a bug. We fixed it for next version. As workaround just open resource menu ID_MRUHOST and delete caption (make it empty) of first level popup. Second will be added.
