How to keep the tooltip of the shape node longer (Read 2129 times)

	I need to keep the tooltip of the shape node until I moved mouse leave. I only find the tooltip delay property for diagramView to sets the time that passes before a tool-tip appears when the mouse hovers over an item. Can any one help me?

	We've added a DiagramView.ToolTipControl property here: https://mindfusion.eu/_beta/fc_ttip.zip Set this to make the tooltips stay visible until the mouse pointer moves: diagramView.ToolTipControl.AutoPopDelay = 0; I hope that helps, Stoyan

	, Thank you for your reply. But it seems little help to me. I used the dll file you given, and followed your step to write codes. It could not keep the tooltip for any longer than 10 seconds, whatever I set AutoPopDelay to 0 or 50000000. And if I set this property to -1, it will be crashed. I tried used the winform tooltip as bellow: Button button1 = new Button(); ToolTip tooltip = new ToolTip(); tooltip.AutoPopDelay = 0; tooltip.SetToolTip(button1, "haha"); This does the same effect. So can you advise me another solution?

	Indeed, the MSDN topic states that the maximum time you can delay a popup is 5000 milliseconds, so I suppose there is no way to overcome this just by setting the tooltip control properties. Instead, you could explicitly use the Show method of the tooltip, e.g. calling it from the MouseMove event: Code private void diagramView_MouseMove(object sender, MouseEventArgs e) { DiagramItem item = diagram.GetItemAt( diagramView.ClientToDoc(e.Location), false); if (item != null) diagramView.ToolTipControl.Show(item.ToolTip, diagramView, e.Location, int.MaxValue); } I hope that helps, Stoyan
