Hi,

all I want is handle the onMouseHover Event for a CXTPControlPopup.

CXTPControlPopup* pCtrlPopup = CXTPControlPopup::CreateControlPopup(xtpControlSplitButtonPopup);

1. I don't know how to catch that event in my mainframe.

2. Another way of doing it: I tried to inherit from CXTPControlPopup -> MyControlPopup
MyControlPopup* pMyCtrlPopup = (MyControlPopup*)MyControlPopup::CreateControlPopup(xtpControlSplitButtonPopup);
but then the OnMouseHover Eventhandler is not called, or

3. I can not set the controltype to "xtpControlSplitButtonPopup", when using
MyControlPopup* pMyCtrlPopup = new MyControlPopup();

what would be the best/easiest way, to catch the OnMouseHover event for the CXTPControlPopup-xtpControlSplitButtonPopup, in order so set a dynamic tooltip ?

Thanx in advance
Cheers Bjoern

ok, i found a way: overriding "CXTPControlPopup* CXTPControlPopup::CreateControlPopup( XTPControlType controlType )"did it now...

but:
how do I make the nee tooltip onMouseHover() appear right away?
I implemented:

void CXTPControlPopupUndo::OnMouseHover() {
this->SetTooltip( GetMyDynString() );
}

but the string only appears once I leaf the control and hover over it again... that is: the tooltip is always the one before...
what function do i need to call to make my string visible as a tooltip immediately ?

Thanx for some help
Cheers Bj�rn

Hi,

don't change OnMouseHover - Override GetTooltip and return your dynamic tip.
