Hello, I've added my own control into an XTP toolbar through CXTPControlCustom, but setting a tooltip text for this control just doesn't display any tooltip. CXTPControlCustom* pControlEmbedder = CXTPControlCustom::CreateControlCustom(&m_MyControl); pControlEmbedder->SetTooltip(_T("My Tooltip Text")); m_pMyToolbar->GetControls()->Add(pControlEmbedder); Do you have any idea what's wrong with this? Do I have to handle tooltips of my control window on my own? Thank you for any suggestions, in advance! |

One workaround would be to use a "normal" handling of tooltips for that single custom control of mine. Is there any commandbar-based solution for this? |

Hi,
Here little workaround class:
template <class T>
class CToolTipRouter : public T { BOOL OnWndMsg(UINT message, WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam, LRESULT* pResult) { CXTPCommandBar* pCommandBar = DYNAMIC_DOWNCAST(CXTPCommandBar, GetParent()); if (pCommandBar) { pCommandBar->FilterToolTipMessage(message, wParam, lParam); } if (message == XTP_TTM_WINDOWFROMPOINT)
{ *pResult = 1; return TRUE; } return CWnd::OnWndMsg(message, wParam, lParam, pResult); } }; Now replace your m_MyControl declaration in mainfrm.h from
CMyClass m_MyControl;
to
CToolTipRouter<CMyClass> m_MyControl; ------------- Oleg, Support Team CODEJOCK SOFTWARE SOLUTIONS |
