Bug or Feature ?

 

I work with Commandbars ActiveX 10.3, an I don't know if this is a Bug or a feature whe the tooltips are displayed. On normal buttons, the tooltips are shown below toolbaar with title, on xtpControlSplitButtonPopup Buttons above without title, like Image. Here my code:

 

If Not CommandBars.ToolTipContext.IsBalloonStyleSupported Then
     CommandBars.ToolTipContext.ShowTitleAndDescription False, xtpToolTipIconNone
     CommandBars.ToolTipContext.Style = xtpToolTipStandard
  Else
     CommandBars.ToolTipContext.ShowTitleAndDescription True, xtpToolTipIconInfo
     CommandBars.ToolTipContext.Style = xtpToolTipBalloon
  End If
.....

.....

   AddControl Control.CommandBar.Controls, xtpControlButton, ID_THEMA
   
    Set Control = .Controls.Add(xtpControlSplitButtonPopup, ID_SCHWIERIG, GetString(ID_SCHWIERIG, 2))

      AddControl Control.CommandBar.Controls, xtpControlButton, ID_SCHWIERIG_1
      AddControl Control.CommandBar.Controls, xtpControlButton, ID_SCHWIERIG_2

 

 

 

This effect is only when I use CommandBars.ToolTipContext.ShowTitleAndDescription True. If it's wrong how I use it, please show me the right way. Thx.

Hello,

 

Sorry but I can't follow you. All tooltips are coming from the same ressource file:

    ID_TEST_SCHWIERIG       "Sch&wierige Fragen...\nSchwierige Fragen\nSchwierige Fragen nochmals üben"

ahhhh ... sorry,  now I get it, thx ...   

I must set seperately the description.text for that control:

Control.DescriptionText = GetString(ID_TEST_THEMEN, 3)

Perhaps you can help me at my other Question.

 

Thanks very much

regards

Detlev
