Formatted ToolTipText Showing Raw
posted

Is there any reason why the tooltip text wouldn't be formatted?

I'm using  the Infragistics.Win.ToolTipInfo class for this and for whatever reason the tooltips often come in unformatted.

ie:

"<b>Header</b> " + someVar + " at " + someVar2 + "<br/>" + ....

 

Will come in as: <b>Header</b> 200 at 40.00<br/>...

 

Any help is much appreciated. Thanks!

    What control are you using? Where are you getting the ToolTipInfo from?

    There are two reasons I can think of why this might happen:

    1) The ToolTipTextStyle on your ToolTipInfo is set to Raw or Default (and not Formatted).

    2) The XML string you are passing in is invalid. If you are missing a tag or the XML is not properly formed for any reason, the tooltip won't be able to parse it, and it will fall back to displaying the raw text.
