Hello Prakash,

This is handled by the ToolTipService class. You can use its static methods to change that:

ToolTipService.SetBetweenShowDelay(...)

ToolTipService.SetInitialShowDelay(...)

ToolTipService.SetShowDuration(...)

Hope this helps

Hi Alex,

Thanks for Reply.

Do you i need to set the Static method for each field in the grid or only to the grid which i am using?

Do you have samples done for the XamDatagrid?

Thanks

Hi Alex,

Here is my code and i use it to apply tooltip property for the LabelPresenter

<Style TargetType="{x:Type igDP:LabelPresenter
}">

<Setter Property="ToolTip" Value="{Binding RelativeSource={x:Static RelativeSource.Self},Path
=Field.(ToolTipService.ToolTip)}" />

</Style
>

<igDP:Field Name="X" ToolTipService.ToolTip="X" Label="X" Row="1" Column="0" >

Even though i apply the method ToolTipService.SetInitialDelay(grid,10000) it never works.

Can you tell me how can i do it for this type of scenario?

Thanks

Prakash,

Here is the working style for the LabelPresenter.

<Style TargetType="{x:Type igDP:LabelPresenter}">

   <Setter Property="ToolTip"

   Value="{Binding Path=Content, RelativeSource={RelativeSource Self}}" />

   <Setter Property="ToolTipService.InitialShowDelay" Value="2000" />

   </Style>

I am sorry for misleading you, the InitialShowDelay is attached property so I believe you have to set it to all of the tooltips.

hi Alex,

i have problem with tooltip delay.

I have the set the InitialShowDelay property to 1000.

It only delays the ToolTip for the first time i go over the Field in the grid where i have tooltip But once if one tooltip opens on the grid then it resets to the default tooltip delay.

Thanks

Prakash.

hi Alex,

Thats right. I am using both the properties for the ToolTipService

But still it doesnot work with the xamDataGrid.

Can we see whle debugging where the property is actually set for the grid

<Style TargetType="{x:Type igDP:LabelPresenter
}">

<Setter Property="ToolTip" Value="{Binding RelativeSource={x:Static RelativeSource.Self},Path
=Field.(ToolTipService.ToolTip)}" />

<Setter Property="ToolTipService.InitialShowDelay" Value="1000"/>

<Setter Property="ToolTipService.BetweenShowDelay" Value
="2000"/>

</Style
>

<Style TargetType="{x:Type igDP:CellValuePresenter}">

<Setter Property="ToolTipService.InitialShowDelay" Value
="1000"/>

<Setter Property="ToolTipService.BetweenShowDelay" Value
="2000"/>

</Style
>

Thanks

Prakash,

As the name implies, SetInitialShowDelay will set only the Initial - the first time the tooltip is displayed. You should set the SetBetweenShowDelay in order to control the time between two consecutive tooptip showings.
