Thanks

You can show tooltip on buttons by using hint property. But you can't show tooltip on widget header.

Hi Berkey,

thanks for the reply, I am wandering is it possible to override the minimize button function to only shows the tooltip but NOT minimize the widget?
Currently we are looking into how we can display a tooltip to describe the widget to the user on the dashboard page.

We are hoping to be able to display an icon (or icon gutton) with a question mark on the header of the widget and using Tooltip Extender to popup the tooltip.

Can you possibly help?

Also can you please instruct how to change the texts (locization) on the dashboard menu and icons tooltip texts please! i.e. 'Create Widget' to 'Add Widget' etc.

Thanks

Porsonw

first question :

you can set these properties by using properties of dashboard surface.

i.e. CreateWidgetsButtonText , ViewDashboardButtonText etc.

second question :

you can add custom tool command to your widget instance.

For Example,

1. please add the code block shown in below to your widgetcontrol that implements IWidgetControl.

Code:
   public void InitControl(WidgetInitParameters parameters)
        {
            surface = parameters.Surface;
            instance = parameters.Instance;
            ToolCommand cmd = new ToolCommand(instance.Type.InstanceKey);
            cmd.JsFunctionName = "trytest";
            cmd.CommandIcon = ToolCommandIcon.Up;
            cmd.Hint = "test";
            instance.ToolCommands.Add(cmd);
	}


2. please add a fake "trytest" js function to your page that contains dashboard surface.

Code:
 function trytest() { };



finally, you can show hint on your toolcommand and it never postbacks.

Regards.

Hi Berkay,

Thanks you very much, its help a lot. Thanks.

Another question, is it possible to set the hint display time?
I would like it to display the hint longer on screen because as you know we use it to describe the widget to user and the hint may be in a slightly longer sentence.

Thanks
