From: GT on 28 Apr 2010 06:25 Visual Studio 2005. MFC. C++. I have classes derived from CTreeCtrl and CListCtrl. I would like to implement a textual popup information window similar to when you hover over a file in Windows Explorer. I don't know what this popup window is called, so my googling has not got me anywhere. What is this 'information popup' called please? Can such a thing be implemented quickly and easily on a list and a tree? I expect I need to use the TVS_TRACKSELECT flag, but what events etc should I override please? Any tips or pointers? Any codeguru samples? Thanks, GT

I can't see a way of implementing what I'm looking for in their help system, but will keep looking.

See CListCtrl::SetInfoTip (and GetToolTips and SetToolTips). These are also in CTreeCtrl. Steve |
