How to display additional information in a tooltip? - SyntaxEditor Web Languages Add-on for Windows Forms Forum

Version: 4.0.0280

I am displaying a xml document.

I have the following node written in my document:

<Numeric Id="field1" Caption="$loc(field1_Loc)" />

I would like to be able to display the value of $loc(field_Loc) (it is defined elsewhere in the xml) in a tooltip when the mouse is over the caption attribute. The default XSD tooltip content should still appear.

How can I do that?

Hi Charles,

If you inherit our XmlSyntaxLanguage class and override OnSyntaxEditorViewMouseHover, you can call the base method then alter the e.ToolTipText however you need. By calling the base method first it will be populated with our default tip text if any.
