Tool Tips

Tool tips are displayed for each tool and document window when the mouse is hovered over its tab. The tool tip uses the value of the TabbedMdiWindow.ToolTipText property. If this property is null, then no tool tip will display.

Lazy Loading of Tool Tip Text

The Dock controls provide a mechanism for lazy-loading the tool tip text. The DockManager component raises the WindowTabToolTipDisplaying event immediately before a tool tip is about to be displayed for a TabbedMdiWindow. The event's arguments have a property that indicates which TabbedMdiWindow is requesting tool tip text.
