hello,
Im trying to show info like text when i put the mouse over a specific button at run-time .. shall I use a textbox and make it hidden till i put the mouse over the button or is there an easier way ?.. hope thats clear enough .. thanks in advance
I'm not sure exactly what you mean, but if you make your text box hidden, I don't think the program will detect a mouse over, as it's not technically there... If you need it to be the type of thing where the user has to know where to move the mouse to get information, use a label with BackStlye set to Transparent... that way it's not as obvious that iit's there, but you can still activate whatever you need on MouseOver.
Use the ToolTipText property to set the text to be displayed. The control will then automatically display the text when the mouse moves over it
If you have lengthy text that needs to be displayed then I would suggest checking out Wokawidgets custom tooltip class in our CodeBank.
