ComponentOne ToolTip for ASP.NET AJAX: Key Features

Key Features

The following are some of the main features of C1ToolTip that you may find useful:

      Automatically add C1ToolTips to your page
Use the AutoTooltipify property to automatically add a C1ToolTip to all items on your page with a Title property, giving your page a clean, consistent look. For more information, see Automatically Adding a ToolTip to Page Elements.

      Embed HTML or custom controls within C1ToolTip
ComponentOne ToolTip for ASP.NET AJAX supports templates so you can easily embed any HTML controls or even your own custom controls inside of C1ToolTip. See Using Templates to Embed HTML Controls in C1ToolTip for more information.

      Dynamically load rich C1ToolTip content on demand
Keep page sizes small and manageable using C1ToolTip's load on demand feature. C1ToolTip provides an C1ToolTip.OnAjaxUpdate event, which triggers an AJAX call to the server when the user hovers over a particular tooltip element on the client. The event handler receives the element's ID, allowing the rich data of the C1ToolTip to be dynamically loaded. See the Ajax Update sample installed with the product for a detailed example on using the load on demand feature.

      Built-in visual styles
Choose from five built-in visual styles to quickly change the C1ToolTip control's appearance. Visual styles include: ArcticFox, Office2007Black, Office2007Blue, Office2007Silver, and Vista. See Using Built-in Visual Styles for additional information.

      Customize the C1ToolTip control with visual styles and CSS styling
Easily customize the C1ToolTip control by pointing to your own visual styles using the VisualStyle property.
ToolTip for ASP.NET AJAX also includes CSS-supported styling so that you can use cascading style sheets to easily style the C1ToolTip control to match the design of your current Web site.
See Adding Custom Visual Styles for more information.
