2 mins read

The tooltip can be set for the cells using CellTipText property and this property can be set by handling the QueryCellInfo event in WinForms GridListControl.

C#

//Event subscription.
this.gridListControl1.Grid.QueryCellInfo += Grid_QueryCellInfo;
 
//Handling the QueryCellInfo event.
private void Grid_QueryCellInfo(object sender, GridQueryCellInfoEventArgs e)
{
    if (e.RowIndex != 0)
        e.Style.CellTipText = e.Style.CellValue.ToString();
}

VB

'Event subscriptions
AddHandler Me.gridListControl1.Grid.QueryCellInfo, AddressOf Grid_QueryCellInfo
 
'Handling the QueryCellInfo event
Private Sub Grid_QueryCellInfo(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As GridQueryCellInfoEventArgs)
      If e.RowIndex <> 0 Then
            e.Style.CellTipText = e.Style.CellValue.ToString()
      End If
End Sub
