Hi everyone.

for the buttons on form. try to use tooltip but some of button Disabled.

When disabled Programaticly I can show tips. and the position also. but I can ot adjust initialDelay property. in same way I can not show enabled Button.

Dim ctrl As Control = Me.GetChildAtPoint(e.Location)

        If ctrl IsNot Nothing Then

            If ctrl Is Me.FirstBtn AndAlso Not IsShown Then
                Dim tipstring As String = "First Record" 'Me.ToolTip1.GetToolTip(Me.FirstBtn)
                Me.ToolTip1.Show(tipstring, Me.FirstBtn, Me.FirstBtn.Width / 2, Me.FirstBtn.Height)

            ElseIf ctrl Is Me.PrevBtn AndAlso Not IsShown Then
                Dim tipstring1 As String = "Previous Record" ' Me.ToolTip1.GetToolTip(Me.PrevBtn)
                Me.ToolTip1.Show(tipstring1, Me.PrevBtn, Me.PrevBtn.Width / 2, Me.PrevBtn.Height)

            ElseIf ctrl Is Me.NextBtn Then
                Dim tipstring2 As String = "Next Record" 'Me.ToolTip1.GetToolTip(Me.NextBtn)
                Me.ToolTip1.Show(tipstring2, Me.NextBtn, Me.NextBtn.Width / 2, Me.NextBtn.Height)

            ElseIf ctrl Is Me.LastBtn Then
                Dim tipstring3 As String = "Last Record" 'Me.ToolTip1.GetToolTip(Me.LastBtn)
                Me.ToolTip1.Show(tipstring3, Me.LastBtn, Me.LastBtn.Width / 2, Me.LastBtn.Height)

                IsShown = True

            End If
        Else
            Me.ToolTip1.Hide(Me.FirstBtn)
            Me.ToolTip1.Hide(Me.PrevBtn)
            Me.ToolTip1.Hide(Me.NextBtn)
            Me.ToolTip1.Hide(Me.LastBtn)

            IsShown = False

        End If

in here first previous buttons disabled and tooltip appear as initialdelay =1

but enabled buttons next and last not show any tip on this way.


only with this code (form_load) I can show tooltips on enabled buttons. but In this time I can not Adjust the position.

Private Sub Form1_Load(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
        ToolTip1.SetToolTip(Me.newButton, "Next Record")

is there any way to show ToolTips on Enabled Buttons AS shown on Disabled Button that I can adjust the position myself .

Advanced thanks.

I have solved the problem with using Label, instade of toolTip. Much Effective Flexible but yes much Code
