Hi,

is there a way to enable the tooltip, when the event is an alldayevent? I get only Tooltips for the non-alldayevents.

Greetings

Ian

Hello JDZA,

You can show tooltip for allday event.

Below a sample with different cases for tooltip:

* AllDay Event: tooltip show only Subject

* other Event: tooltip show StartTime-EndTime and Subject

* no Event: tooltip show StartTime

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Private Sub CalendarControl_MouseMove(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single)
Dim HitTest As CalendarHitTestInfo

    Set HitTest = CalendarControl.ActiveView.HitTest
    If Not HitTest.ViewEvent Is Nothing Then
        If HitTest.ViewEvent.Event.AllDayEvent Then
            CalendarControl.ToolTipText = HitTest.ViewEvent.Event.Subject
        Else
            CalendarControl.ToolTipText = JustTime(HitTest.ViewEvent.Event.StartTime) & "-" & JustTime(HitTest.ViewEvent.Event.EndTime) & " " & HitTest.ViewEvent.Event.Subject
        End If
    Else
        CalendarControl.ToolTipText = JustTime(HitTest.HitDateTime)
    End If
End Sub

Private Function JustTime(Dt As Date) As String
JustTime = Format(Dt, "hh:nn")
End Function

Now this feature supported on Core level - without client code to use. You just need to set once e.g.

CalendarCtrl.CustomFormat4Tooltip = " My subject = <SUBJ> @ <TIME> in <LOC> with <BODY>"

and <TAG> will replaced by specific value for event and fillers (like "My subject =" ) can be used to make all tooltip better looking (if you want it)

You can use tags in any order and also use one some of tags or one. This "CustomFormat4Tooltip" will overwrite other modes and show tooltip for each variable source of info (All Day, Multi Days and so on)
