Size of tooltipps
Posted: Sat May 02, 2009 05:09 PM

I think the sizes of the tooltips can use a little adjustment.

tooltip with header:

ssay2:cToolTip = {+ CRLF + "Zeitschrift: ecolex 2001, 84;" + OemToAnsi("  ™JZ EvBl 2001/18");
                  + CRLF + "Entscheidungssammlung: SZ 71/89;  VfSlg 15510";
                  + CRLF + "OGH-Rechtssatznummer: RS0122393";
                  + CRLF + OemToAnsi("Fundstellenliste: Anklicken des Pfeiles rechts!") , OemToAnsi("Suche nach Fundstellen in Publikationen:")}

The balloon is too big:

Same without header:

Code (fw): Select all Collapse

fuGet:cToolTip = "Zeitschrift: ecolex 2001, 84;" + OemToAnsi("  ™JZ EvBl 2001/18");
                  + CRLF + "Entscheidungssammlung: SZ 71/89;  VfSlg 15510";
                  + CRLF + "OGH-Rechtssatznummer: RS0122393";
                  + CRLF + OemToAnsi("Fundstellenliste: Anklicken des Pfeiles rechts!")

A little bit too narrow:

Can we change the size-calculation?

Dietmar

From Antonio to a similar question:

Otto,

This FWH tooltips enhancement was implemented back in March 2008. From whatsnew.txt:
* Enhancement: Tooltips can now have user defined header, icon and colors, by specifying the tooltip as an array in the format { cToolTipText, [cHeader, [nIcon]], [nForeColor], [nBackColor] }. If the tooltip is specified as a codeblock, it can evaluate to a character value or an array.

Surely this can improve your tooltips very much regards, saludos

Otto

Dietmar,

you could also try to add

SendMessage(hWnd, TTM_SETMAXTIPWIDTH, 0,300 )

in METHOD ShowToolTip of window class.

Best regards,
Otto
