Thread: Customized tooltip

Can I add customized tooltip (image/balloon) to my image button in VB.net ?


Regards.

You mean a regular button with image and no text?

Code:

Dim tt As New ToolTip()
tt.SetToolTip(button1, "click me")

I have the image button. And I want to give the tooltip as another image.

I'm still not sure what kind of button you are talking about, and I haven't got a clue what "give the tooltip as another image" means.

The ToolTip class has some new functionality in 2005. Add one to a form and check out the properties listed in the Properties window. It can be diplayed as a balloon instead of the default rectangle. It can also display a title and one of the standard icons like a MessageBox.

Note that if you want more than that you'll have to inherit the class and handle drawing it yourself I would think.

Thanks for the solution.
