sleepydvdr Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 Why would you want to have a tool tip and not have be seen? This doesn't make any sense to me. #include <ByteMe.au3> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

creativemind7 Posted November 26, 2011 Author Share Posted November 26, 2011 Why would you want to have a tool tip and not have be seen? This doesn't make any sense to me.I did not say that i want to have tooltip and not have be seen. I said that i made a tooltip, but it gets on Top Most of Other Items. I want to run tooltip behind the other windows. Means, that I want to disable "Always on top" from tooltip). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrewManNH Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 Repeating the same thing over and over again doesn't answer anyone's question, why do you want to hide the tool tip behind other windows? The point of a tooltip is to display information that is usually relevant to the window you're interacting with, or displaying information that you need to be seen. If you hide it, what's the point of having it display in the first place?I did not say that i want to have tooltip and not have be seen.If you disable the OnTop style of the tooltip, then you ARE making it possible to have it not be seen. If you don't want it Always on Top, then don't use a tooltip, use something else, possibly Melba23's Toast UDF. If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise. Also, if it doesn't work on XP I can't help with that because I don't have access to XP, and I'm not going to.Give a programmer the correct code and he can do his work for a day.

czardas Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 (edited) How did you make the tooltip? Did you use GUICtrlSetTip? If not, then I guess you are talking about something else. Let's see the code. Edited November 26, 2011 by czardas operator64 ArrayWorkshop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
creativemind7 Posted November 26, 2011 Author Share Posted November 26, 2011 Here is my Code goes: ToolTip($FileName,230,260," ",1,1) and below is screen shot: You can see that the ToolTip is on "Top" of My Computer Window and it does not get Behind. I want to run Tooltip just in Back of any window *(e.g here My computer Window). Sorry for my weak english, i m not native english. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
czardas Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 (edited) I don't think it is possible to have a tooltip hidden behind another window. You might be better using a message box, or you could make something similar to a tooltip by creating a very simple GUI with just a yellow label and some text.

Skitty Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 Why? Why would you want it hidden? because astonishingly, It makes no practical sense on any level. Tool tips are mean't to be seen first hand, if they had the properties you describe, well, that would just be odd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
