Syntax editor multiple tooltips

[Greg]

Tried extending the a custom tooltip tagger to recognize multiple words/tooltips but no luck. Below is my custom tooltip tagger, any thoughts on where I am going wrong?

using System.Collections.Generic;
using Telerik.Windows.SyntaxEditor.Core.Editor;
using Telerik.Windows.SyntaxEditor.Core.Tagging;
using Telerik.Windows.SyntaxEditor.Core.Text;

namespace QuickMeasuresPro
{
    class DAXTooltipTagger : TaggerBase<ToolTipTag>
    {
        private string searchWord;

        private static readonly string[] Keywords = new string[]
        {
            "APPROXIMATEDISTINCTCOUNT","AVERAGE","AVERAGEA","AVERAGEX"
        };

        private static readonly string[] Tooltips = new string[]
        {
            "APPROXIMATEDISTINCTCOUNT(<columnName>)\r\nReturns the approximate number of rows that contain distinct values in a column.",
            "AVERAGE(<column>)\r\nReturns the average (arithmetic mean) of all the numbers in a column.",
            "AVERAGEA(<column>)\r\nReturns the average (arithmetic mean) of the values in a column.",
            "AVERAGEX(<table>,<expression>)\r\nCalculates the average (arithmetic mean) of a set of expressions evaluated over a table.",
        };

        public DAXTooltipTagger(ITextDocumentEditor editor)
            : base(editor)
        {
        }

        public override IEnumerable<TagSpan<ToolTipTag>> GetTags(NormalizedSnapshotSpanCollection spans)
        {
            if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(this.searchWord))
            {
                yield break;
            }

            TextSnapshot snapshot = this.Document.CurrentSnapshot;
            foreach (TextSnapshotSpan snapshotSpan in spans)
            {
                string lineString = snapshotSpan.GetText();
                int i = 0;
                foreach (string keyword in Keywords)
                {
                    string tooltip = Tooltips[i];
                    i++;
                    int index = lineString.IndexOf(keyword);
                    while (index != -1)
                    {
                        TextSnapshotSpan tempSnapshotSpan = new TextSnapshotSpan(snapshot,
                            new Span(snapshotSpan.Start + index, keyword.Length));

                        yield return new TagSpan<ToolTipTag>(tempSnapshotSpan, new ToolTipTag(tooltip));

                        index = lineString.IndexOf(keyword, index + keyword.Length);
                    }
                }
            }
        }

        public void UpdateSearchWord(string newSearchWord)
        {
            this.searchWord = newSearchWord;
            this.CallOnTagsChanged(this.Document.CurrentSnapshot.Span);
        }
    }
}

Hi Greg,

You need to call the method UpdateSearchWord() which calls the CallOnTagsChanged() which starts the tagging iteration process. In your case , I guess you want to prepare tooltips for all keywords, so searchword is not mandatory, you can remove the if in the GetTags(). On a button click, when I call the UpdateSearchWord(), I successfully see the tooltips when later hover the keywords with mouse:

       private void Button_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
        {
            this.daxtooltipTagger.UpdateSearchWord("AVERAGE");
        }

Thanks, yeah should have updated this, I did figure that out to call UpdateSearchWord () and it worked. Then I had to change things up a bit to actually use some regex to find potential matches and iterate through the keywords in order to prevent both SUM and SUMX from matching SUMX for example.
