I want to show a tooltip over one of my WinForm controls at startup. The
control is part of a UserControl that I'm hosting in a CAP DeckWorkspace.
In other words, I have many user controls that I activate or show by
bringing them to the front.
I have a tooltip control setup to be a balloon tooltip. Inside the Load
event handler for the UserControl I have this code:
toolTip_ChangeSearchLocation.Show("Some text.",
linkLabel_ChangeSearchLocation);
This doesn't work. Nothing shows, no exceptions, etc. Now, if I add a
button to my user control and add the above code in the click handler it
works. It doesn't draw the arrow correctly until I click it twice, but I
hacked around that by calling the same code twice in the event handler.
What I'm after is to have my UserControl show a tooltip over a certain
control at startup.
Anyone do this? It's hard to know why I'm not seeing the tooltip when
called from Load, since there are no errors, I don't have much to go with.
Thanks for any help,
