hello all,
i want to display a tool tip showing wht to be typed into the text box as always.
initially the text box has only the write() as content
my requirement is to show to the user write(string name,int value,string name1) to the user as a tool tip, so tht the user will insert into the textbox a value like write("ABC",25,"hello").....
thanks & regards
Tony

I'm not sure I follow, you want a tooltip to show the user what to type ? Have you tried using the code on MSDN to show a tooltip ? I suspect a tooltip will disappear when the user types, perhaps you need your own custom window ?

hello Christian Graus
thanks for u r reply
i tried a different way
i created an array for storing the messages for showing in tool tip.
then on the textBox event txt_Textchanged
i wrote.. the code
toolTip1.SetToolTip(textFunctionget, TooltipshowNI[i]);
toolTip1.ShowAlways = true;
here textFunctionget is the textbox
and TooltipshowNI[i] is the array
this is working but problem is if i change the mouse pointer from above the textBox the tooltip is not show
Can u help ??/
Why this occurs.. if the pointer is above the textbox then tooltip is show always when i type inside the textBox .. but ,,,
plz help
Thanks
Tony

Like I said, I don't think that the default tooltip behaviour is what you want, I think you'll want to create your own custom window.

If you're a beginner, why are you attempting such a complex task ?
It's just a modeless form, it's pretty simple.

You can set the tooltip for the textbox using ToolTip.SetToolTip method and you can show it while the KeyPress event of the textbox.
Hope it helps.

hello d@nish
on which event of textbox shall i write the code .... on TextChanged or on keypress event
i want the tool tip to be show always when the user types inside the textbox...
i am trying to achieve a kind of thing wht the .NET editor gives us while we type in the editor with the Ctrl + spacebar is pressed ,,, intelesence..
|
|
|
|
|
I feel TextChange will be a better option as it is fired even if user pastes text from somewhere else while KeyPress does not.

I guess you must be using ToolTip.Show method. What have you specified as IWin32Window?

toolTip1.SetToolTip(textFunctionget, TooltipshowNI[i]);

IWin32Window?????
i found only this.....
tooltip1.SetToolTip(Control contol,String Caption)
Cotrol is the name of the textBox,,,, and caption the message from the array TooltipshowNI[i]

I guess I misunderstood your problem. I am using only this line of code in TextChanged event and this works fine for me.
oToolTip.Show("hi", this.txtSample, this.txtSample.Right, this.txtSample.Bottom,1000);

hi all.
I want to create a Web Analytics project in C#
is this possible in C#? must I do it from the server side or can I do also from the client side? where can I find good examples on how to start?
are there any drawbacks to do it in C#(compatibility issues) ?

Classically web analytics services work by including a small snippet of JavaScript on every page. The JavaScript sends a message to the analytics server every time the page is visited. The JavaScript will gather the specific data about the client that is connecting, and send it to the analytics server.
The server can then count the number of visits, and calculate the trends etc.
There's no reason why you can't write the server part in C#, you just need to expose the server endpoints in some way. (WCF/WebServices/etc)
There are a few open source projects around that you could look at.
http://piwik.org/[^]
http://www.openwebanalytics.com/[^]
(This isn't a small project. If your new to C#, you might want to pick something simpler to start with and come back to this when you have a bit more experience)
Good luck.

thanks Simon for your help.
I am new to C#, but I hope I will not run to too many problems(google is going to be my best friend for that  )
I saw here in the forum that there is another way to do it.
you can do it by building an add-in to the browser ( should work only on explorer)
what do you think about that way?
is it more diffuclt in your opinion?
in both ways I need to use Windows Hooks to capture the user events?
p.s
I want my project to be generic. are both ways good for that?
|

It depends on what you want to use it for, but I would suggest that a browser addin isn't going to capture very good data for you.
I doubt many users are going to be prepared to install browser addins to allow a website to track their usage. I certainly wouldn't. And like you said, it will only work for IE. (It might work in a company environment where you have control over the users PC). Also, I don't think you can write IE addins in C# (although I could be wrong about this)
Traditional web analtics packages track things like time spent on site, pages visited, so you wouldn't need to use windows hooks to track this kind of thing. Are you talking about a different kind of anaylitcs?

the point of the project is learning C#, so I dont mind if useres will have to install it on their computers.
I want to track a lot of things. mouse clicks, which controls are there in the page, mouse speed, the percentage of time the mouse was over text, the speed a user typed inside text fields....these are just few of them
maybe I can't write addin with C#(I still need to check it out), it was just a thought
|
|
|
|
|
Ahh, right, I see what you are trying to do.
Yes, this is going to be a more client side thing rather than a traditional style "web analytics".
Simon
|
|
|
|
|
so you are saying that addin is a better way?
|
|
|
|
|
It's a way. It'll do.
Simon
|
|
|
|

ok, thanks for your help
now I just need to find out how to create addin using C#

Hello everyone,
I am trying to find ways to draw a run time changeable string over a DirectX 8 game. I tried almost everything search engines could provide me with, and i came up only with the "proxy" solution. Since i am familiar only with C#, and C++ is not an option it is very difficult for me to build the expected .dll. I am wondering if you know other possibility of rendering this text over the directx game. The most annoying problems i found were:
1. The directX app is fullscreen.
2. The app is using directx 8 . Barely finding resources.
3. I need to have my application to control when to draw, when to stop, what to draw over the DirectX.
4. I need to use C#.
If i used wrong terms like "drawing over" i am sorry, but i'm not too familiar with the Drawing part of coding.
Thank you very much.
