I made a button, derived from CXTButton, with 2007-styled tooltips. It works as expected until I click the button. After that, the tooltip is the same old yellow rectangle again... what's causing this?

Here's my button class:

Hi,

Don't call EnableToolTips if you use tooltipcontext.

If I remove the call to EnableToolTips, the tooltipcontext disappears too. Even if I remove the call, the office2007 tips are never shown once I have pushed the button.

So, I am sure that EnableToolTips has nothing to do with the disappearance of the tooltips.

Any ideas? Thanks!

Hello,

yes, problem in TooltipContext that was not designed to work with full window. as workaround change:

INT_PTR CXTSimpleButton::OnToolHitTest(CPoint point, TOOLINFO* pTI) const
{
ASSERT_VALID(this);
ASSERT(::IsWindow(m_hWnd));

int nID = GetDlgCtrlID();

CXTPClientRect rc(m_hWnd);
rc.DeflateRect(3, 3);

if (!rc.PtInRect(point))
return -1;

CXTPToolTipContext::FillInToolInfo(pTI, m_hWnd, rc, nID, m_strToolTip, m_strToolCaption, m_strToolTip);
return nID;
}
