I wanted to add tool tips to a wxTreeListCtrl but had a little trouble that I have since worked around. I want the tool tips to be based on the item I'm hovering over. To do this, I added a handler for mouse motion and am using HitTest to figure out which item I'm hovering over. There's a problem with this, though: the header. I needed a way to account for the height of the header but m_headerHeight is a private member. My first change was to make a protected GetHeaderHeight() method. Then in my OnMouseMotion handler I can do this: wxPoint point (event.GetX(), event.GetY() + GetHeaderHeight()); wxTreeItemId item = HitTest (point); Second, wxWindow::SetToolTip() doesn't work correctly since it's really the main window that needs to handle the tool tip. So my second change was to override wxTreeListCtrl::SetToolTip() and have my function call m_main_win::SetToolTip(). Here's the whole function that I added to the end of treelistctrl.cpp: void wxTreeListCtrl::SetToolTip (const wxString &tip) { m_main_win->SetToolTip (tip); } And here are the changes I made to the protected section of treelistctrl.h: int GetHeaderHeight() const { return m_headerHeight; } void SetToolTip (const wxString &tip); ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=462819&aid=2858734&group_id=51305 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Let Crystal Reports handle the reporting - Free Crystal Reports 2008 30-Day trial.
