'Hover Text' On A Control
Oct 9, 2009In HTML you can add an ALT property to an IMG tag so when a user hovers over a picture, a little box appears with a description.How can I add this feature to a button or other control within my form?I assume that I would edit the method "MouseEnter" (I am guessing that means when the mouse "enters" the area of the button)? But I wouldn't even know where to start as far as coding the little box that would appear with a description.I didn't find anything within the Properties box (like where you can specify the TEXT to appear on a control)Or perhaps I overlooked it (or its called something that doesn't make it obvious)

Balloon Tip In The System Tray Has Closed?
May 28, 2009I have an application that uses a NotifyIcon in the tray to hide/restore the application, as well as pop up notices to the user of application events. My application has a notification queue, and I use the NotificationIcon.BalloonTipClosed event to determine when to reset the balloon and show the next notification (if there's one in the queue).
This method seems to work great in both usual causes (user lets the balloon close itself when it times out, and user clicks "X" in balloon to force it to close), but there's a third case where BalloonTipClosed doesn't get called:Notification balloon pops up While it's visible, user right-clicks on notification icon to bring up context menu, causing the balloon to disappear
The BalloonTipClosed event doesn't get triggered in this instance - I figure it's a bug in the framework (I'm using 2.0), but does anybody have an idea around this? If I don't get this event, my application always thinks there's a balloon visible (I have a boolean that prevents it from displaying multiple balloons at once), and it will never show another icon again, as long as it's running.
Balloon Tooltip Info Icon?
Oct 18, 2009 I have a notifyicon in my VB.NET application. At the start of the programm it goes to the system tray and adds some global hotkeys. If one of this keys is pressed, then a balloon tooltip appears. At design time I have set up the balloon icon as 'Info'. But when the balloon tooltip appears, no 'Info' icon comes up, only the standard balloon tooltip. However, when the icon type is set up to 'Error' or 'Warning', it works. Why this behaviour? (on Vista)
An another problem is, that I set the timeout property f.i. to 500 milliseconds, the balloon tooltip is even visible after some seconds too.
Display A Quick Notification Balloon Tip?
May 26, 2011I am wondering how can I show a balloon tip for my system tray NotifyIcon application QUICKLY. What I mean by quickly is not linger around for like 5 seconds.. I have tried entering 1. For example my code is currently:
NotifyIcon1.ShowBalloonTip(1)

Multi Line Balloon Notification?
May 19, 2009I have just started using Balloon Notifications in one of my apps for work but need to put the text on multiple line.
Here is my code:
nfi_Pick.BalloonTipIcon = ToolTipIcon.Info
nfi_Pick.BalloonTipTitle = Picked_By & " Added A New Item"
nfi_Pick.BalloonTipText = Desc & " --> Branch: " & Item_Location & " --> Can Be Sent Today!"
nfi_Pick.ShowBalloonTip(3)
But it puts the "Can Be Sent Today" on the same line.
Show Balloon Tooltip From Another Form?
Jun 13, 2010I want to display a balloon tooltip in the system tray. Currently, my app has four forms. the main form host the notifyicon. In process of operation with other forms, i want the current form to be hidden , and display a balloon message using the notifyicon of the main form.
in the form about to close this is what i did
c# Code:
frmMain frm2 = new frmMain();
frm2.ShowBallon("Logged in","Check for new mail....");
this.Close();
[Code].....
The problem is that the procedure executes, but dosen't show any balloon .Another problem is that the notify icon does not disapper automatically when the app exits, except you hover the mopuse over it.
VS 2008 Balloon Tooltip Not Pointing Where I Specify?
Nov 28, 2011I have a balloon tool tip and want to show it as follows:
vb
Dim CompleteTooltip As New ToolTip With {.IsBalloon = True, .ToolTipTitle = "Title", .ToolTipIcon = ToolTipIcon.Info}
CompleteTooltip.Show("Click close to confirm changes", btnClose, CInt(btnClose.Width / 2), CInt(btnClose.Height / 2), 5000)
i would have thought if i specify that i want a balloon tooltip the point that i specify would be the point that the balloon points to - NOT the upper left point of the tooltip itself... how can i specify the balloon point rather than the upper left point?

Balloon Backlog - Activating Notify Icon Tooltip?
Feb 9, 2010Every six minutes, my program talks to an instrument. Then, it activates a notify icon's tool tip for half a second to say what it did and when. According to the databases, everything's been going great, but the balloon tip text is a week behind and still trying to catch up. I'm getting text after text about stuff that happened last week. You should know that no one's touched the machine for at least a week. Because the program talks to the instrument every six minutes, the computer never hibernates, never shuts down, and the screen saver is off.
