Separate Tooltip of Gridview HeaderText into mutli-line

[Chi Wai]

Hi

I am wondering if it is possible to create a tooltip for gridview header
text?
if so, is it possible to set it to have mutli-line? I tried to do it on the
ASPX page,
but it does not seems to work.

Many thanks

Chi

Hello Chi Wai,

You may check out there. This article descripted how to add tooltip into DataGrid Head.
http://www.extremeexperts.com/Net/CodeSnippets/ToolTipForDataGridHeader.aspx
[ToolTip for DataGrid Header]

by the way, if you want to have mutli-line, you can separate them by "<BR>".

Hope this helps.

<BR> does not work for me. (HeaderText="Log<BR>Id" ). The browser simple
display "text"<BR>"text". Can you provide example of the HTML source?

Hello Jmside,

oops... It seems <BR> doesn't works in Tooltip.
Please try this way. The following code could achive what you need.

this.Label1.ToolTip = "Hello "+System.Environment.NewLine+" all";
or
this.Label1.ToolTip = "Hello \n all";

Hope this helps.

Hi Wen Yuan

I think it does not work as well. It just read it as a space : (

Any idea?

Many thanks

Hello Chi,

That’s strange. I have tried “\n” on my side. It really works.
Do you have any screen shooting about the problem?
And please paste some code snippet about how you set the text into ToolTip property. I cannot reproduce the issue.

Thanks.

Hi Wen Yuan

Here it is the code that I did for the label

<asp:Label ID="lbl_CPPW" runat="server" ToolTip="abc \n bce"
Text="yeaheyaheyayaw"/>

Do you think the problem I have is because I do all the thing in asp tag?

Thanks very much for your help.

Many thanks

Hello Chi,

In ASP.net tag. you have to add new line directly. for example:

<asp:Label ID="lbl_CPPW" runat="server" ToolTip="abc

bce"
Text="yeaheyaheyayaw"/>

Hope this helps.

This way works as well:

ToolTip='<%# String.Format("The order to display{0}the field in the form",
System.Environment.NewLine) %>'
