Edit Tools and ToolTip

[Madhavi Balusu]

Hi,
I need to show tooltips on CurrencyEdit and ButtonEdit controls. Using System.Windows.Forms.ToolTip and then doing SetToolTip does not seem to be working.

Please advise. Thanks.

Hi,

The issue with these controls is that they are ContainerControls hosting other Controls within them. This seems to be a problem with the framework itself as the controls like NumericUpDown (in the framework lib) also exhibit this problem.

For now, the only workaround is to parse through the Controls list of these controls and setup the tooltip for each child control, like this:

foreach(Control child in this.currencyEdit1.Controls)
{
this.toolTip1.SetToolTip(child, "Currency Edit");
}

Thanks.

Best regards,

Stephen.
