Tooltip Image

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

   How do you include an image in the tooltip for the system menu?  I have looked at the Ribbon Sample and can't figure it out.  I have the Application icon that is displayed but I want a different image displayed in the tooltip.

BTW- I have been looking at the CreateRibbonBar() function of MainFrm.

Thanks in advance,

Owen

	Hi, Do you load this image ? In sample this line load image for IDB_GEAR tooltip: UINT uiGroupsTip[] = {ID_GROUP_CLIPBOARD_OPTION, ID_GROUP_FONT_OPTION, ID_GROUP_PARAGRAPH_OPTION, ID_GROUP_STYLES_OPTION, IDB_GEAR}; pCommandBars->GetImageManager()->SetIcons(IDB_GROUPOPTIONTOOLTIP, uiGroupsTip, _countof(uiGroupsTip), CSize(100, 130));

	IDB_GEAR is used in multiple places. In the code you posted it is used from the GroupOptionToolTip.png. It also uses the shiny-gear.png The shiny-gear.png is used as the Application icon. How can I just get my png to be used in the tooltip window and another png to be the application icon?

	it's like our sample works. Pleae check its code. IDB_GROUPOPTIONTOOLTIP contains bitmap for tooltip: UINT uiGroupsTip[] = {ID_GROUP_CLIPBOARD_OPTION, ID_GROUP_FONT_OPTION, ID_GROUP_PARAGRAPH_OPTION, ID_GROUP_STYLES_OPTION, IDB_GEAR}; pCommandBars->GetImageManager()->SetIcons(IDB_GROUPOPTIONTOOLTIP, uiGroupsTip, _countof(uiGroupsTip), CSize(100, 130)); and IDB_GEAR for application icon : UINT uCommand = {IDB_GEAR}; pCommandBars->GetImageManager()->SetIcons(IDB_GEAR, &uCommand, 1, CSize(0, 0), xtpImageNormal);
