GalleryItem.Hint Property

Gets a hint associated with the gallery item.

Namespace: DevExpress.XtraBars.Ribbon

Assembly: DevExpress.XtraBars.v19.2.dll

Declaration

public string Hint { get; set; }

Property Value

Type Description
String

A string that specifies the gallery item’s hint.

Remarks

Hints are displayed when hovering over a gallery item . If the Hint property is set to an empty string, the hint is not displayed.

Gallery items also support SuperToolTip objects. Use the GalleryItem.SuperTip property, to specify a SuperToolTip object.

The appearance and behavior of hints is determined by a Tool Tip Controller. If a gallery item is used within a RibbonControl, the Tool Tip Controller is specified by the RibbonControl.ToolTipController property. If a gallery item is used within a GalleryControl, the Tool Tip Controller is specified by the GalleryControl’s inherited BaseControl.ToolTipController property.

By default, the ToolTipController properties contain null references, which means that tooltips are handled by the DefaultToolTipController. See Tooltips for more information.
