CToolTipCtrl::Create

Creates a tool tip control and attaches it to a CToolTipCtrl object.

virtual BOOL Create(
   CWnd* pParentWnd,
   DWORD dwStyle = 0 
);

Parameters

  • pParentWnd
    Specifies the tool tip control's parent window, usually a CDialog. It must not be NULL.

  • dwStyle
    Specifies the tool tip control's style. See the Remarks section for more information.

Return Value

Nonzero if the CToolTipCtrl object is successfully created; otherwise 0.

Remarks

You construct a CToolTipCtrl in two steps. First, call the constructor to construct the CToolTipCtrl object, and then call Create to create the tool tip control and attach it to the CToolTipCtrl object.

The dwStyle parameter can be any combination of Window Styles. In addition, a tool tip control has two class-specific styles: TTS_ALWAYSTIP and TTS_NOPREFIX.

Style

Meaning

TTS_ALWAYSTIP

Specifies that the tool tip will appear when the cursor is on a tool, regardless of whether the tool tip control's owner window is active or inactive. Without this style, the tool tip control appears when the tool's owner window is active, but not when it is inactive.

TTS_NOPREFIX

This style prevents the system from stripping the ampersand (&) character from a string. If a tool tip control does not have the TTS_NOPREFIX style, the system automatically strips ampersand characters, allowing an application to use the same string as both a menu item and as text in a tool tip control.

A tool tip control has the WS_POPUP and WS_EX_TOOLWINDOW window styles, regardless of whether you specify them when creating the control.

To create a tool tip control with extended windows styles, call CToolTipCtrl::CreateEx instead of Create.

Example

See the example for CPropertySheet::GetTabControl.
