Help with ToolTip class and MapView

In our application using TG10 WinForms we were able to display “Map Tips” using the .NET ToolTip class. Hovering the mouse over a feature in the map would result in a ‘balloon’ displayed containing some information about the feature.

However, the same ToolTip class will not display when using the MapView in TG14. There is no error, but the ToolTip never appears. Most likely this is because the MapView is a WPF control hosted to work in WinForms. Is there a workaround for this? I have included a sample project which sets the tool tip in the form load event.

Thanks!

Hi Steve,

It’s been fixed. pull the latest (beta106) and have another try.

Thanks,
Ben

Awesome, works fine in beta 106. We have begun formal testing of our upgrade from TG10 to TG14 and don’t want to release beta versions to our testers. Will this fix be in a production release any time soon?

Thanks!

Steve

The next major production release will be in May. We can put this specific fix in a hotfix release by the end of March, but not sure if that’s what you need?
