Omit tooltip for UltraLabel
posted

I'm currently adding tooltips to our application where I'm using the ToolTip class instead of UltraToolTipManager because they imho look smarter than the balloons. I don't show tooltips for most of the labels but I've one UltraLabel used for showing the customer's address where I want to show a tooltip. During testing the tooltips I wondered why a second tooltip with the address itself has been popping up. After hovering over other UltraLabels I realized that this seems to be the default behavior that a tooltip is shown with same text as the label. For the UltraLabel, where I want to display my own tooltip, this now looks a little bit weird (see attached picture).

I couldn't find any property on UltraLabel class to omit showing default tooltip on it so my question is how can I do this?

Regards, Wolfgang

    Hi Wolfgang,

    Okay... but just FYI, UltraToolTipManager doesn't HAVE to use balloon style. You could just do this:

    this.ultraToolTipManager1.DisplayStyle = Infragistics.Win.ToolTipDisplayStyle.Standard;

    Set AutoEllipsis to false.
