Ribbon bar tooltip and xml

[Roger]

Is there anyway to set the extended tooltips when building the ribbon from XML?

Also is there an option to set the tooltips to not display?

Hello Roger,

You can set the ToolTip attribute of an item in the XML and the RibbonBar will recognize it. Here's a sample XML that demonstrates this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-16"?>
<RibbonBar>
    <Tab Text="Tab1">
        <Group Text="Group1" EnableLauncher="true">
            <Button Size="Medium" Text="Button1" ToolTip="This is a button" />
        </Group>
    </Tab>
</RibbonBar>

If you want to prevent the tooltip from displaying, you can use the following js code:

Telerik.Web.UI.RadRibbonBar.prototype._showToolTip = function() {};
