Hi,
I'm trying to find out how to get the tooltip to display when the mouse is over the main part of the control. With:

ToolTip1.SetToolTip(RTPExpiresOn, "Leaving this as 1/1/1901 will set no expiration date for this document.")

The tooltip will on display when the mouse hovers over the part of the control where you click to select the date. Thanks!

Hello Jeffrey,

Thank you for writing.

RadControls use a little bit different mechanism to show ToolTips. You need to subscribe to the ToolTipTextNeeded event of your RadDateTimePicker amd set the text as follows:

void Form1_ToolTipTextNeeded(object sender, ToolTipTextNeededEventArgs e)

{

e.ToolTipText = "TEXT";

}

Since we are using RadToolTip, you can read more about it here: RadToolTip | UI for WinForms Documentation.

Let me know, should you have further questions.
