ListTool DescriptionOnMenu
posted

Hi,

I added a list tool to a popup menu on my ribbon.  I set the DescriptionOnMenu property.  In the designer in VB 2008, I see the description I entered.  But when I run my app, the Description is not there.  My list items show up, but the description is gone.

 I haven't used this tool before.  Is the description supposed to show up when the app is running?  I would like to have a way to put a description in there. 

Thanks,

~Karen

    For most tools, yes the DescriptionOnMenu should show up at run-time. However, the ListTool does not actually display itself at run-time. It instead displays its ListToolItems. Each ListToolItem also has a DescriptionOnMenu which you can set and will see at run-time.
