Can someone confirm this :o)

Hi,

I have been trying to find an answer, even a hint, but despite posting
the following question on various forums i haven't even had a single
reply for nearly two weeks (.

"Why do treeview tooltips flash if the main form has its
transparencykey set?"

Could a couple of people please try this (its a 67 second job) just so
i know it isn't just my PC )

You can replicate this behaviour really easily by (c# VS2003)

1) creating a new c# windows application
2) set Form1.TransparencyKey to the same as Form1.BackColor
3) Add a treeview to the form
4) Add a node to TreeView1 whose text is too long to display (i used
'whyisthishappeningwhyisthishappeningwhyisthishappeningwhywhywhy')
5) run the application and hover your mouse over the node.


Many thanks,

James.

I do see the described behavior in .NET 1.1. I do not see it in .NET
2.0 though.

ClayB,
Thanks for your reply. It does seem to be a 1.1 issue - dammit.

Is there anybody there (that could give me a clue as to why this is
happening)?

Cheers and thanks!
James.
