    Tooltip question

    Is there a way to change the "fadeout" of a tooltip? In other words, it'll
    display for about 10 seconds which may or may not be long enough for a user
    to read the tooltip. I'd like to programatically adjust it if possible, and
    if that's not, I would like to increase the time duration.

    Anyone know if you can do this?

    Thanks

    You can't. This is a local machine setting.

      Re: Tooltip question

      In IE you can use tooltip.htc behavior, and adjust it for you needs.

        You are correct, Maxim. My apologies for the misinformation.

            Re: Tooltip question

            Can this be changed from inside the codebehind?

            What I'd like to do is display a tooltip for the same item, but saying
            different things depending on the access level of the user as he enters the
            page. For some user levels, I want the tooltip to display longer, but could
            live with it if I could only choose it to be a length throughout the site.

            I have an existing dotnet website, what do you need to add to the project?
            If I add the tooltip_js.htc and the tooltip_vbs.htc to the project, where
            are they added?

              Well, as you should know by now, I haven't worked with tooltips much in web
              applications, but I did find the following MSDN article which may be of help
              to you:

                Yes - that's the one I'm looking at as well.

                Wasn't sure where the pages needed to go, or if the script needed to be
                yanked into the aspx portion of the page I was working on. Wasn't sure if
                the htc file took over settings for the entire project or not.

                  Re: Tooltip question

                  Maxim:

                  Can this be changed from inside the codebehind?

                  What I'd like to do is display a tooltip for the same item, but saying
                  different things depending on the access level of the user as he enters the
                  page. For some user levels, I want the tooltip to display longer, but could
                  live with it if I could only choose it to be a length throughout the site.

                  I have an existing dotnet website, what do you need to add to the project?
                  If I add the tooltip_js.htc and the tooltip_vbs.htc to the project, where
                  are they added?

                  SC

                    Re: Tooltip question

                    I'm running into this issue as well. Can anyone provide a more detailed response on what you need to do. I need to change the Tooltip.Duratio n, but I don't know if its simply a line of code or if I need to include a file.

                    Thanks
