Tooltip manager: Set Modal and ManualClose by code

[Long]

Hello,
I have a grid with a tooltipmanager, when one mouse over a certain column of a row, the tooltip with detailed content of that row will show. I'm happy with that.
What I want to do is :
    *If one clicks the "Edit" button INSIDE the tooltip content, the tooltip becomes Modal and ManualClose=true;

Is it possible to do that?

Thanks in advance,
Long

Hi Long,

I suggest to use jaavscript in order to set the desired configuration, e.g use code similar to teh following one:

  var tooltip = Telerik.Web.UI.RadToolTip.getCurrent();
               if(tooltip)
               {

                  tooltip.set_modal(true);
                  tooltip.set_hideEvent(Telerik.Web.UI.ToolTipHideEvent.ManualClose);
                  tooltip.hide();
                  tooltip.show();
               }

Thanks, Svetlina ,
I didn't expect you guys working on Boxing day :-)

Is it possible to  do it server side?

Thanks in advance,

Hello Long,

Basically, you can set the desired settings on the server as explained here and as shown below:

 RadToolTipManager1.Modal = true;
 RadToolTipManager1.HideEvent = Telerik.Web.UI.ToolTipHideEvent.ManualClose;

However, this approach is much more complicated than setting them on the client because in this case you should take care not only to set the desired configuration but to update the manager and updating the manager will cause the tooltip to close, so you should show it again after that. Since the RadControls provide the client-side and server-side API to change their configuration, it is up to you to choose how to implement your scenario and to take care of the general tasks.
