InfoTip.Show - SyntaxEditor for Windows Forms Forum

Posted 20 years ago by painetraine

I show an infotip and where before it would show roughly below where the caret was it now shows above the caret and essentially hides the caret so that the user can't see where the current caret is.

I usually do a .Show(-10)

Do I need to change that with the 2.5 release?

Thanks

It should be working the same. Our test application actually does a .Show(offset - 10) when you type in "Invalidate(" to show the info tip and that works fine. Can you tell me how to duplicate the problem in our test application? We're doing a maintenance release this weekend so I'd like to get a fix in for this if it is now a bug.

Nevermind, I used:

Show(SelectedView.Selection.EndOffSet - 10)

and it showed properly. In past versions I have simply used:

Show(-10)

and it showed correctly, it looks like you made some change that you now have to explicitly provide the offset to get it to show properly.

I don't really think this needs a fix since I was probably calling it wrong.

Thanks for the help
