I do see those props, but I wanted to use the ttmanager (tooltip) for its image and appearance properties. If I include a textboxeditor and have a ttmanager on the form the textboxeditor has the properties to set it for the ttmanager, and it can be done thru code. It then gets the image and apperances that are like all the other controls on the form, but with a tbmanager I dont see those props added to the designer property window, and hence the tooltips look different. If I would try thru code for the tbmanager tool collection, but its a converting issue I think that would cause a problem, due to the windows.form.controls and the toolbase.

I guess what I am asking for is, can I make the tbmanager tools have the same appearance (gradient, colors, whatever I use) and image (or custom) as the other controls on the form?

 Thanks Mike

Hello,

What is the status on this issue in Infragistics 11.2?  I tried using the UIElement.Control of ToolBase, but it is allways null. 

What I am trying to do is to forcefully showing a custom ToolTip on a PopupMenu tool. Based on some action that the user performs. So the toolTip acts as a information popup on the Toolbar. 

Is there any way to do this?

Thanks

Thanks for the quick reply. I see that you are setting tooltip = "add" in .cs file  in your solution, but it never appeared on buttonTool3 tool with tooltip "add" on mini tool bar

I forgot to give you version. I'm working on Netadvantage 11.2 CLR 4.0. I would suggest you to try on same version.

You are right that i didnt set ShowToolTips but i just tried with that setting too but didnt help.

Thanks,

Satish

Please

Hello again Satish,

It just came to my mind that you might have not set 'ShowToolTips' on the 'Settings' object of the 'MiniToolbar' to True. I did it in my sample.

Hello Satish,

I tried this and it always works fine for me so I attached my sample to this post for you. Please review it and feel free to let me know if I misunderstood you or if you have any other questions.

I have tried all below three.

ultraToolbarsManager.MiniToolbar.Tools["Add"].SharedProps.Caption= "Add";

ultraToolbarsManager.MiniToolbar.Tools["Add"].SharedProps.ToolTipText = "Add";

ultraToolbarsManager.MiniToolbar.Tools["Add"].SharedProps.ToolTipTextFormatted = "<span>Add</span>";

Nothing worked. Not sure Why tool tip not working.  I would appreciate if  you can shed some light on this.

Thanks,

Satish.
