Hello Ben,

You can control the size of the tooltip via the System.Windows.Forms.ToolTip and subscribing to the PopUp event
E.g.

private ToolTip toolTip = null;

private string tip = "";

toolTip = this.radCalendar1.ElementTree.ComponentTreeHandler.Behavior.ToolTip;

toolTip.Popup += new PopupEventHandler(toolTip_Popup);

this.radCalendar1.ToolTipTextNeeded += new ToolTipTextNeededEventHandler(radCalendar1_ToolTipTextNeeded);

void toolTip_Popup(object sender, PopupEventArgs e)

{

e.ToolTipSize = new Size(50, 300);

}

void radCalendar1_ToolTipTextNeeded(object sender, ToolTipTextNeededEventArgs e)

{

tip =

"This is quite a long tip and will be broken down into several lines when the user hovers over and has a look at the tip"

;

e.ToolTipText = tip;

}

and you can control other ToolTip elements. E.g.

toolTip = this.radCalendar1.ElementTree.ComponentTreeHandler.Behavior.ToolTip;

toolTip.BackColor = System.Drawing.Color.LightBlue;

toolTip.IsBalloon = true;

Hope that helps
Richard
