no tip when over on customtreectrl

Fabio_Spadaro · December 30, 2011, 9:47am

Hi all.

Suppose a panel container of a wx.TreeCtrl is very tight and the label of the treectrl item has not

completely visible, then when you over mouse on item appears tip showing the entire label

But this does not work with the customtreectrl. You see this on demo.

What version of wxPython are you using and on what operating system?

Please also attach a minimal running sample application that
reproduces the issue your seeing
(MakingSampleApps - wxPyWiki). i.e) what is the problem
your having exactly?

Hi,

Here is a test example, I have comment ‘self.SetDoubleBuffered(True)’

You can try to uncomment it to see what’s difference,

Thanks for your help,

Sorry but again, What version of wxPython are you using and on which
Operating System?

Also in the future when attaching files, please use a common format
such as gz or zip as its much more likely people will already have
software installed on their systems that can open the files.

It's wxpython-2.9.2-i386-python-2.7.2, running on WindowsXP sp3.

Thanks for your advice, I will take it next time.

Hi,

It's wxpython-2.9.2-i386-python-2.7.2, running on WindowsXP sp3.

I am not seeing any difference between using double buffering and not
(Windows 7 / wxPython 2.9.2.4).

Is the button having issues getting drawn on your system? Such as
after you mouse over it the background stays the same or gets
distorted or something along those lines? Will see if I can try it on
a Windows XP machine later in the week.

Hi Cody,

Many thanks for your help.

The problem is just as you said,

background stays while mouse in or clicked.

Hi,

Hi Cody,

Many thanks for your help.
The problem is just as you said,
1. bitmap can not shown,
2. background stays while mouse in or clicked.

I can see the problem on Windows XP though I am not sure of the exact cause.

It is kind of strange, the text is drawn correctly and updates to the
hover over color but the buttons highlight color and bitmap are not
drawn. They do however show up briefly after the window is re-sized.

Seeing as this works correctly on Windows 7 I am not sure how much
time I will have to investigate it to fix it just for XP, but please
feel free to open a bug report for it and will try to investigate when
I can.

Regards,

Cody

The CustomTreeCtrl may not support showing the tips, you've got the full source code so you can read that to be sure. If not then you can probably handle it in your derived class without too much hassle. Basically you would restart a timer for every mouse motion event and if the mouse ever holds still long enough for the timer to expire then you get the current item under the mouse and set the tooltip to that text. (Or perhaps use a wx.TipWindow.) Don't forget to also watch for EVT_LEAVE_WINDOW events so you can stop the timer when the mouse leaves the area.

There is also the possibility to bind the wx.EVT_TREE_ITEM_GETTOOLTIP
event in your derived class, and then simply call:

event.SetToolTip('whatever string')

I guess, however, that the tooltip-appearing behaviour should be
built-in when the items are clipped because of lack of horizontal
space. I'll try and see if I can implement it in the next few days. I
wonder why the generic version of wxTreeCtrl in the wxWidgets C++
folders doesn't do that...

This issue should now be solved in the latest SVN, where you can use
the agwStyle TR_TOOLTIP_ON_LONG_ITEMS to achieve the effect you are
looking for automatically. See the freshly uploaded documentation for
AGW 0.9.3 for more details.
