Tooltips

Summary

We have a little problem with tooltips.

We have two vectordraw controls in a Visual Basic app. Both this two controls have many blocks that show tooltips. The problem is that when moving the mouse over this controls (not only when moving the mouse very fast) and after that moving to other controls, the vectordraw tooltip stills visible on screen. Even when the application changes to other form, the tooltip is still there.

Is there any way to refresh tooltips or something like that?

Thanks.

Solution

In your project when the cursor is outside VectorDraw control try to set EnableToolTips to false.

For example if you have two VD controls in your form with EnableAutoFocus property to True then in each VD controls LostFocus event set the EnableToolTips to false and in the GetFocus event set the EnableToolTips to true.
