Hi All,
I am trying to display a custom tooltip when the mouse hovers an event. I
have the code working but in the codejock docs it mentions an
undocumented property called TooltipText which is inherited ??
I also checked the generated package file and there is no sign of the property ..
Those that have the codejock calendar control help can see what I am referring to by looking up the method EnableToolTips.
Any Ideas How I need to reference this ..
Sam

Actually this refer to the CanlendarControl.ToolTipText property. It is language specific too, in VB6 the Calendar inherits this property, in C# it will not. ToolTipText is a standard control's property, provided by VB framework.
Use methods CalendarControl.EnableToolTips to disable built-in Calendar
tooltips, then catch MouseMove and using method
CalendarControl.ActiveView.HitTest determine the current active items
where cursor is currently placed. Then show some custom tooltip with
this information displayed.
This idea is show in Calendar Visual Basic sample. Please look below
for an implementation of MouseMove method -- it is pretty simple:
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
Debug.Print "MouseMove. HitTest = "; HitTest.ViewEvent.Event.Subject
If ToolTips_Mode = 1 Then
CalendarControl.ToolTipText = "[" & HitTest.ViewEvent.Event.Id & "] " & HitTest.ViewEvent.Event.Subject
Else
CalendarControl.ToolTipText = ""
Me.Refresh
End If
Else
CalendarControl.ToolTipText = ""
Me.Refresh
End If
End Sub
