Keep appointment tooltip visible longer?

[Kjell]

How do I go about keeping the appointment tooltip visible longer?  Ideally until the mouse leaves the appointment,right now it stays up about 5-7 seconds.

Hi Kjell,

In Silverlight it is not possible to increase the display time of the tooltip. In WPF, the ToolTipService class exposes the ShowDuration property that gives you control over how long your tooltip will be displayed, but in Silverlight there is no such property. What you can do is use a third-party tooltip that offers this functionality.

If you choose in implement a third-party tooltip, the integration with RadScheduleView is simple and easy. Just set ToolTipTemplate="{x:Null}" of RadScheduleView and then add your custom tooltip in the appointment control template (both horizontal and vertical).

I hope this information will be helpful.

Kind regards,

Do you have any sample code for implementing a custom tooltip with a longer duration?

I'm working on a project where the user is requesting this.
