Add Tooltip To The Menu Items?
Jan 26, 2009
I am using Visual Studio 2008 (with focus in VB.NET). I want to add tooltip to the menu items in the menus I have created.Now I know that menu items have a property call tooltip and if I type text there, tooltips are displayed. But I want to use tooltip control for that because it gives me flexibility of changing colours or adding a heading to tooltips.I was able to bound tooltip control for controls on forms like button, textbox etc. But how can I achieve the same for menu items. Basically I want that my tooltips for menus have a heading also and If I want I can change colours.

I have combed these forums and the 'net and can't find an answer to my specific problem. My menu strip disappeared (after deleting a small secondary form within my project). I therefore created a new strip and while recreating the menu items realized that the original menu items are still present, showing in my properties list. I have checked my design file as well and the original menu strip is definitely gone but the original menu items are there. I don't have many items so I would have no problem just deleting the original ones but I can't see them to delete them! I have checked and they are all set to visible. I have also moved everything on my form to see if it is behind anything else.

MsgBox("A")
End Sub[code]....

I am wanting to create a menu based on items in my MS SQL database i have 3 tables
FormTbl
FormID - Int Eg (1)
FormName - nvarchar(50) Eg (Form1)
[CODE]...................
I can get the form names to be populated in to the menu and can open it my question is how do i set where the menu items will be placed. Eg File with FormHierarch 0 will be the very first one. Exit with FormHierarch 0.1 will be the very first one under File
Private Sub Main_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
Dim menu As New MenuStrip()
Dim dst As DataTable = User.MenuItems(Me.ToolStripStatusLabel1.Text)
[CODE].....................................

I have a little issue with the tooltip and with a toolstrip control...
I added the tool tip and set the in toolstrip control the ShowItemToolTips to True, and set for each button that i have the correct text. When i run the application when i put the mouse over the buttons the tool tips are showed, but for example the icon doesn't show up, i only get the rectangle with the text...
If i put text in the tooltiptext for the toolstrip control it works fine.

My visual studio 2005 has been running great up till now The menu items in the menu toolbar display exactly as follows:File File Edit Edit View View File File Edit Edit View View Tools Tools Tools Tools Window Window Community Community Help Help Window Window Community Community Help Help
Error List is displayed as follows:(I've excluded the icons)0 Errors 0 Errors 0 Warnings 0 Warnings 0 Messages 0 Messages The standard toolbar images are also displayed in 'duplicate'
This is before I open a project and visual studio is on the start page. The 'duplicates' do not go away even when a project is open.When project is open, Solution explorer displays duplicate images as well
I've tried all the following but still cannot get it to display normally. Restored my computer to a time when it was working ok. Full scan on my computer with AVG premium which includes spyware etc (No viruses , etc found) All software is updated fully

I have the following linq statement to go through a dropdown menu's sub items and get what items are checked: vb Dim UnselectedItems = From xItem As ToolStripMenuItem In tsiSelectObjects.DropDownItems Where TypeOf xItem Is ToolStripMenuItem AndAlso CType(xItem, ToolStripMenuItem).Checked = False
I get this error tho: Unable to cast object of type 'System.Windows.Forms.ToolStripSeparator' to type 'System.Windows.Forms.ToolStripMenuItem'. As you can probably guess i have ToolStripMenuItems and separators in there
However the AndAlso should short circuit in the case where the item is not a ToolStripMenuItem and it doesn't seem to be doing so (as TypeOf xItem Is ToolStripMenuItem=false in this case)?

I am able to have checked menu items show the variables that I need to show, but they don't uncheck themselves unless I go back and click them. I want to have only one checkmark on a country at a time...is there any way? I've tried if...elseif , but that doesn't work....example below (If I only want Mexico checked and NOT United States, but both are checked still).
If MexicoToolStripMenuItem.CheckState = CheckState.Checked Then
UnitedStatesToolStripMenuItem.CheckState=CheckState.Unchecked...
End IF

I downloaded a nice menu control from this webpage [URL]. I added the control to my toolbox, and dragged and dropped it onto my form. The problem is I can't see any way of adding menu items. There is a property named items, but that doesn't seem to add menu items to the menu. There doesn't seem to be any other property that would add the items. Any way of adding code to add the menu items.

I am adding some functionality to a custom ContextMenuStrip control that I have created. One of the first things that I need to do is increase the mouse hover time on the submenu context items. The following code works perfectly for the main context items, but will not fire my mouse hover event for submenu items.I believe the problem is that I need to set the tme.hWnd handle to the submenu. If that is the case, how do I get the handle of the submenu as it is opening?
Friend Const WM_MOUSEMOVE As Integer = &H200
Friend Const WM_MOUSELEAVE As Integer = &H2A3
Friend Const TME_LEAVE As Integer = &H2

I have to create an application that will dynamically add a menu strip with menu items to a form(ie NOT dragged and dropped onto the form) in Visual Basic. The menu strip should be created in the Form_Load event handler. I have to use a TextBox for user input. If the user enters information into the TextBox and clicks on the Add Button, the text should be added to a ComboBox control.A Menu should then be created that must be added to the menu strip dynamically.

I have two menu items from which I choose the interface language of a program (English or French).I want either of them to be chosen, both can not be chosen at the same time. I went over the properties of ToolStripMenuItem object and saw three properties that are confusing (Checked, CheckState and CheckOnClick), how can I mix them so that I get that functionality, I mean that when I check the French, the English gets unchecked and vice versa.

A restaurant wants an application that calculates a table's bill. The application should display all the menu items ( shown below) in four ComboBoxes. Each ComboBox should contain a category of food offered by the restaurant (Beverage, Appetizer, Main Course and Dessert). The user can choose from one of these ComboBoxes to add an item to a table's bill. As each item is selected in the ComboBoxes, add the price of that item to the bill. The user can click the Clear Button to restore the Subtotal:, Tax:, and Total: fields to $0.00?
