How to close RadtooltipManger using server side code

[Ram]

Hi,

I am opening a user control (which has a close button in it) in radtooltipmanager.
 I want to execute some server side code on close button and at the same time i want to close the radtooltipmanager, how can I achieve this ?

Is there any way to Close the radtooltipmanager from code behind (on close button click)


Regards,

Hi Ram,

In order to close the RadToolTip, all you need to do is execute a javascript function that calls the hide method of the RadToolTip client object. Here is the forum link which discusses how to close the tooltip from code behind.

Hello Ram,

 Indeed, the suggestion Shinu provided will work. However, fo convenience we have implemented a static method which will save you some code. Please, modify the client script which you execute from teh server in the following manner:

function CloseActiveToolTip()
        {
            setTimeout(function(){
                var tooltip = Telerik.Web.UI.RadToolTip.getCurrent();
                if (tooltip) tooltip.hide();
            }, 1000);

Note, also that you can reduce the timeout, depending on your particular page (most often a timeout of 0ms will do the trick).

Could you please elaborate a bit more on the usage.

I am trying to accomplish the exact same behavior but am having trouble getting the code to work.

I have a user control that gets called via the RadToolTip Manager. This user control has a grid, on selecting any of the items in the grid the tooltip should close and populate a textbox on the parent page.

Following is the code that I have written in the select index changed of the grid in the user control

Private Sub grdn_SelectedIndexChanged(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles grd.SelectedIndexChanged

 Page.ClientScript.RegisterStartupScript(Page.GetType(), "closeActiveTip", " CloseActiveToolTip(sendValue);", True)

End Sub

I have the following JavaScript on the Parent ASPX page

function CloseActiveToolTip(valuefromToolTip) {

           //do something with value from tool tip

 

           setTimeout(function() {

               var tooltip = Telerik.Web.UI.RadToolTip.getCurrent();

               if (tooltip) tooltip.hide();

           }, 10);

       }

The Javascript never gets executed. Could you please let me know if I am missing out something.

Thanks!

Hi aster,

 Your code seems to be correct for the basic setup. The only thing I can think of that might cause the problem is that you are using AJAX for the grid.

Would you please test the following:

1) If you are using a RadAjaxManager, add the script to the ajax manager's ResponseScripts collection instead of executing it through the ClientScriptManager of the Page

2) Try whether using ScriptManager.RegisterClientScript resolves the problem.
