Hi,

I've looked through the tooltip information in the help file a few times and can't seem to find a way to change the style. Is it possible to use make the tooltips have the Balloon style?

No, only the traditional rectangular style is available.

Could this be considered for a future version? It would help maintain consistency with the XP balloon style tooltips I'm using in the rest of my application.

Failing that we now have hTooltip which is being used in the rest of the app, so I'm looking at using that in the RequestCellToolTip event and so far it appears to working well.

Our policy is to keep the size of the control as small as possible and not to bloat it with features which are used enough rarely. The existing rectangular built-in cell tooltips work ok in 99.99% of cases as built-in grid tooltips which do not require any coding, so we do not plan to extend this functionality.

If you already use hTooltip as the main tooltip provider everywhere in your app, then it's a wise solution to use it as iGrid cell tooltips. The RequestCellToolTip event is the right place to suppress the default cell tooltip and display your own one. If you need any help with implementing this solution, feel free to contact us.

Hi Igor,

I took me only a few minutes to sort out a hTooltip implementation which works, and so far has had no problems. Thanks for the offer though.

Regards,

Dan
