Is it possible to show a custom tool tip when the focus is in the cell, as the user navigates through a grid using the keyboard using the tab key?
The code posted here probably won't work, since the tooltip won't show up unless the mouse hovers over a cell.
If you want to force a tooltip to show up based on the current active cell, then you could use the UltraToolTipManager component and call the ShowToolTip method in the AfterCellActivate event of the grid.
I would use the after cell activate event and do a select statement for the column header text. Once you have that then just assign the tooltip text.
Something like this:
Dim
aColumn As UltraGridColumn
aColumn = aUIElement.GetContext(
GetType(UltraGridColumn))
Select Case aColumn.Header.Caption
aRow.ToolTipText =
"This Customer has a contract that is fast track. " & sActiveRow & ""
Else
"This Customer has a contract that is fast track."
