Using the RibbonBar Sample I am trying to get tooltips to be displayed. But cannot find out how to do this. Is it possible? Is there a secret I need to know? ------------- Chris (Manchester, UK) -- www.abc6.co.uk ---- Using CodeJock ActiveX Suite 13.1.0 with Windows8, VB6 SP6 |

hi,
try adding something like that:
CommandBars.ToolTipContext.Style = xtpToolTipStandard

| Nothing special, should show tips as it was installed. |

Sorry, here is more information. Tooltips work OK on the RibbonBar tabs, and on buttons in those tabs. But I cannot get tooltips to work on any buttons in popup menus (eg the one that appears when you click on the SystemIcon top left of RibbonBar). Example code: Set PopUpBar3.Controls.Add xtpControlButton, ID_TEST, "Daybook" PopUpBar3.FindControl(, ID_TEST).ToolTipText = "This should appear" If I get the program to debug.print the tooltiptext, it correctly prints "This should appear". ------------- Chris (Manchester, UK) -- www.abc6.co.uk ---- Using CodeJock ActiveX Suite 13.1.0 with Windows8, VB6 SP6 |
