How to set supertooltip for cells in WinForms GridControl?
Set SuperToolTip
To set the SuperToolTip for each cell in a WinForms GridControl, you can use MouseMove event. By using this event, you can set the tooltip to get the corresponding row and column index by setting the PointToRowCol method.
The following code example explains how to set SuperToolTip for each cell in a GridControl by using MouseMove event.
C#
private void gridControl1_MouseMove(object sender, MouseEventArgs e)
{
int row, col;
GridCurrentCell cc = this.gridControl1.CurrentCell;
if (this.gridControl1.PointToRowCol(new Point(e.X, e.Y), out row, out col) && (col != hoverCol || row != hoverRow))
{
hoverCol = col;
hoverRow = row;
Rectangle rect = this.gridControl1.GetCellRenderer(row, col).GetCellBoundsCore(row, col, false);
Point screenPoint = this.gridControl1.PointToScreen(new Point(rect.Left, rect.Top));
ToolTipInfo tinfo = new ToolTipInfo();
tinfo.Header.Text = string.Format(" row {0}, column {1}", hoverRow, hoverCol);
superToolTip1.Show(tinfo, screenPoint);
}
}
VB
Private Sub gridControl1_MouseMove(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As MouseEventArgs)
Dim superToolTip1 As New SuperToolTip()
Dim row, col As Integer
Dim cc As GridCurrentCell = Me.gridControl1.CurrentCell
If Me.gridControl1.PointToRowCol(New Point(e.X, e.Y), row, col) AndAlso (col <> hoverCol OrElse row <> hoverRow) Then
hoverCol = col
hoverRow = row
Dim rect As Rectangle = Me.gridControl1.GetCellRenderer(row, col).GetCellBoundsCore(row, col, False)
Dim screenPoint As Point = Me.gridControl1.PointToScreen(New Point(rect.Left, rect.Top))
Dim tinfo As New ToolTipInfo()
tinfo.Header.Text = String.Format(" row {0}, column {1}", hoverRow, hoverCol)
superToolTip1.Show(tinfo, screenPoint)
End If
End Sub
