Tooltip When Clicking on any Text?

[Lance]

Hi all,
I would like to use the tooltip control to display a dictionary definition of a any word within a panel.  So, when the user double clicks on a word, the tooltip queries a webservice and grabs the definition of the clicked word.  Is this doable, or am I going down the wrong path?

Hello Lance,

Yes, this is possible. Actually we have an online demo similar to your scenario, however it is implemented with RadWindow - Using RadWindow as Information Popup. You can check the code of the demo to see how to achieve the double-click functionality that your case requires. Next, I suggest to check the following RadToolTip demos which will show you how to implement your WebService with RadTooltip:
