GeneralCustomizing Intellisense Information Tooltips Pin
19-Mar-01 12:23
suss19-Mar-01 12:23 
Question Summary: How do you customize the "tooltips" displayed by Intellisense?

Question Details:

I am trying to customize the "tooltips" that show up as a part of Microsoft's Intellisense "Auto Complete" feature.

For example, while building an ASP page in Visual InterDev, if I type "Request" and a dot (.), an Intellisense window "pops" up and displays the properties and methods that the ASP Request object supports. As I scroll down the list of available methods and properties, an "information" tooltip appears to the right of the drop down list.

I have been able to trace the content of these "information" tooltips back to the type library ASP.tlb. The same "information" string appears in the helpstring attribute. It would seem that this is the source of the text that Intellisense uses. (If this observation is incorrect, please let me know)

When I created a test component, I put my own detailed help "information" string in the helpstring attribute. However, when I do this it does not show up like it does for Microsoft's intrinsic ASP objects. In fact, it does not show up at all.

What am I doing wrong? Why is Microsoft able to do this and I am not? Is there a different IDL attribute to set, or perhaps a different IDL compiler is required?

Thanks in advance for any advice or recommendations. If anyone knows of good documentation of Microsoft's Intellisense, that would be great too.

Sincerely,
Trong Ha
