Hi:
I'm new to infragistics and am in the process of convincing my company to use your products to improve our user experience. I've been trying to put a prototype together and when I went to capture the image of my app, I got some interesting differences in the image as compared to the screen. The long and short of it was that there were an extra set of little boxes with numbers in them, located around the QAT and the tabs. Does anyone have an idea of what these are or better yet, how to not have them show up? Sorry that I can't upload the image, the prototype has proprietary info in it. If there is an interest in seeing it, maybe I can make a simple example of the problem.
Regards/Cheers.
Bob,
What you are seeing are KeyTips, which are automatically generated and are displayed when you hit the Alt key. For more information, please see this article in our online documentation. In order to have them not show up, you need to set the following 2 properties:
ultraToolbarsManager.Office2007UICompability = false
ultraToolbarsManager.AutoGenerateKeyTips = false
Hope this helps,
~Kim~

Thanks for your response! Sorry to say that because I'm new to Infragistics, I'm still a little lost. I'm having a hard time grasping the context of the snippets, like needed namespaces and assembly references, what classes have ultratoolbarmanager fields/properties. Can you maybe point me to an example of this that is not a snippet or give me a little more context?
Regards,
Bob
If you have dragged an instance of the UltraToolbarsManager onto the form in the VS designer, you can add the following code in your Form_Load event:
this.ultraToolbarsManager1.Office2007UICompability = false;
this.ultraToolbarsManager1.AutoGenerateKeyTips = false;
Or, you can set these properties on the UltraToolbarsManager in the designer via the Properties window.
It makes a big difference, because not only are the tools different, but they are in completely different toolsets. I recommend posting your questions in the XamRibbon forum.
I think I forgot to mention that I'm working in WPF. All of the references that I've seen for this are in the WinForms stuff. Does this make a difference?
