Positioning a Form on DataGridView_MouseMoue()
I am creating a fixed size, windows form to be used as a tooltip, because I needs to control 'Opacity', that a regular tooltip does not allow. The issue I am having is that the form does correctly appear near my mouse pointer when hovering over the grid, but occasionally I see it flash very briefly outside the grid client area. It mostly happens when I first start the hover action. The flash is the result of the form momentarily appearing in the... -
How to display a tooltip with transparent background.
// The below code simply creates a black rectangular area for the tooltip
// Did I need to do any pinvike stuff to make the background tranparent.
// What am I really tring to acheive is Opacity of say 10% for the tooltip, so I can see the data on the grid the tooltip is covering.

sanjayamladi replied to Adding a custom string as a bitmap (or simply text) alongwith the mouse pointerin C SharpFirst off I did not claim that code I posted was mine.

Thanks for wasting my time with your verbose any utterly useless reply. The 'spirit' of this forum is to contribute ONLY when you have something useful to contribute, not just because you have spare time.Leave a comment:

sanjayamladi replied to Adding a custom string as a bitmap (or simply text) alongwith the mouse pointerin C SharpI am not aware of a way to do that. I am wondering if I need to only display a custom string at the pointer location without really doing anything with the cursor at all! Thanks for your responseLeave a comment:

During a drag and drop operation involving two DataGridViews, as source and targets, I need to display a custom string (either as a bitmap or simply text) ALONGSIDE (or at) the mouse pointer. I know how to replace the default cursor with a custom text, but this replace the pointer. I need to show both the pointer as well as the text (Similar to the cursor in Windows explorer when you drag n drop a file: you will notice theres a file name in addition...
