ToolTipService.ToolTipOpeningEvent Field

  • Reference

Definition

Namespace:
System.Windows.Controls
Assembly:
PresentationFramework.dll

Identifies the ToolTipOpening event that is exposed by objects that use the ToolTipService service to display tooltips.

public: static initonly System::Windows::RoutedEvent ^ ToolTipOpeningEvent;
public static readonly System.Windows.RoutedEvent ToolTipOpeningEvent;
 staticval mutable ToolTipOpeningEvent : System.Windows.RoutedEvent
Public Shared ReadOnly ToolTipOpeningEvent As RoutedEvent

Field Value

RoutedEvent

Examples

The following example shows how to set an event handler for the FrameworkElement.ToolTipOpening event. In this case, the event handler is actually for FrameworkElement.ToolTipOpening, because the Ellipse where the handler is attached is a derived class of FrameworkElement.

ellipse2.AddHandler(ToolTipService.ToolTipOpeningEvent,
    new RoutedEventHandler(whenToolTipOpens));
ellipse2.AddHandler(ToolTipService.ToolTipClosingEvent,
    new RoutedEventHandler(whenToolTipCloses));

ellipse2.AddHandler(ToolTipService.ToolTipOpeningEvent, New RoutedEventHandler(AddressOf whenToolTipOpens))
ellipse2.AddHandler(ToolTipService.ToolTipClosingEvent, New RoutedEventHandler(AddressOf whenToolTipCloses))


void whenToolTipOpens(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
    Ellipse ell = new Ellipse();
    if (sender.GetType().FullName.Equals("System.Windows.Shapes.Ellipse"))
    {
        ell = (Ellipse)sender;
        ell.Fill = Brushes.Blue;
    }
    else if (sender.GetType().FullName.Equals(
                             "System.Windows.Controls.ToolTip"))
    {
        ToolTip t = (ToolTip)sender;
        Popup p = (Popup)t.Parent;
        ell = (Ellipse)p.PlacementTarget;
        ell.Fill = Brushes.Blue;
    }
}

void whenToolTipCloses(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
    Ellipse ell = new Ellipse();
    if (sender.GetType().FullName.Equals(
                      "System.Windows.Shapes.Ellipse"))
    {
        ell = (Ellipse)sender;
        ell.Fill = Brushes.Gray;
    }
    else if (sender.GetType().FullName.Equals(
                           "System.Windows.Controls.ToolTip"))
    {
        ToolTip t = (ToolTip)sender;
        Popup p = (Popup)t.Parent;
        ell = (Ellipse)p.PlacementTarget;
        ell.Fill = Brushes.Gray;
    }
}


Private Sub whenToolTipOpens(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As RoutedEventArgs)
    Dim ell As New Ellipse()
    If sender.GetType().FullName.Equals("System.Windows.Shapes.Ellipse") Then
        ell = CType(sender, Ellipse)
        ell.Fill = Brushes.Blue
    ElseIf sender.GetType().FullName.Equals("System.Windows.Controls.ToolTip") Then
        Dim t As ToolTip = CType(sender, ToolTip)
        Dim p As Popup = CType(t.Parent, Popup)
        ell = CType(p.PlacementTarget, Ellipse)
        ell.Fill = Brushes.Blue
    End If
End Sub

Private Sub whenToolTipCloses(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As RoutedEventArgs)
    Dim ell As New Ellipse()
    If sender.GetType().FullName.Equals("System.Windows.Shapes.Ellipse") Then
        ell = CType(sender, Ellipse)
        ell.Fill = Brushes.Gray
    ElseIf sender.GetType().FullName.Equals("System.Windows.Controls.ToolTip") Then
        Dim t As ToolTip = CType(sender, ToolTip)
        Dim p As Popup = CType(t.Parent, Popup)
        ell = CType(p.PlacementTarget, Ellipse)
        ell.Fill = Brushes.Gray
    End If
End Sub

Remarks

The ToolTipOpening event occurs immediately before a tooltip opens. This event does not occur if the tooltip is not defined or if the tooltip content is set to null.

This field registers the behavior of the ToolTipOpening event for classes that use this service. The FrameworkElement and FrameworkContentElement classes both implement the ToolTipService and expose this event through the common language runtime (CLR) accessors FrameworkElement.ToolTipOpening and FrameworkContentElement.ToolTipOpening.

If you specify the tooltip as a ToolTip object, the Opened event is also raised when the tooltip opens.
