Namespace: DevExpress.XtraBars

Assembly: DevExpress.XtraBars.v24.1.dll

NuGet Package: DevExpress.Win.Navigation

[DefaultValue(false)]
[DXCategory("Appearance")]
public bool ShowScreenTipsInMenus { get; set; }

Property Value

Type Default Description
Boolean false

true if bar item link tooltips should be displayed within context menus; otherwise, false.

Remarks

The ShowScreenTipsInMenus property allows you to enable hints for bar item links when they are displayed within sub menus or popup menus (not within toolbars). For toolbar hints, use the BarManager.ShowScreenTipsInToolbars property instead. To assign a required hint to a bar item, use the BarItem.Hint or BarItem.SuperTip property. The following image illustrates a disabled bar item link within a sub menu. The hint for this link describes what this link does and why it is currently disabled.

ShowScreenTipsInMenus

By default, the tooltips are handled by the DefaultToolTipController. You can use this component to customize style and behavior settings for tooltips.

See Hints and Tooltips for more information.
