Hi there.

I use to update labels from another thread running by the standard way

if (lblBloqueados.InvokeRequired)
            lblBloqueados.Invoke(new LabelDelegate(ABloqueados), new object[] { pMensaje });
         else
            lblBloqueados.Text = pMensaje;

Now I'm trying to update the ToolTipText of a control, but the ToolTip control doesn't have the InvokeRequired status. So I don't know how to solve it.

Any help. Thanks in advance

Solution 1

Use the Invoke function of the form on which the control is. It's very likely that the form and its controls were created on the same thread.

Hi Akos. I'm creating the UC that have the ToolTip into another UserControl (container). The UC I'm using, also contains 5 other UserControls, and in 3 of them is where I'm trying to use the ToolTipText.
Thanks for your answer.
