A mechanism to easily define jQuery Tooltips for detail view properties ??

created 12 years ago

I would like to have a tooltip mechanism which:
- is easy defined
- uses jQuery and jQuery-ui tooltip
- supports html tags
- has no character number limit (as in standard IE browser dialog)
Example of use:
Set an attribute on your entity property:

C#
[Tooltip("This is a sample tooltip from an <br/><br/>(some BR tags)<br/><br/><br/><br/>attribute")]

Or set a text in Model.DesignedDiffs.xafml (in a detail view layout item)How to do this ?

      Thanks for your contribution, Krzysztof! I have just reposted it in my personal blog:

        Hi Krzysztof,
        Nice work!
        But in my scenario I'm rendering an icon in a grid for a Memo. In the tooltip I'm showing the Memo content. Know our customer is requesting to enable HTML formatting in the Memo, therefor I need the jQuery tooltipts to be 'extended' to ListViews as well.
        Do you have any plans on extending your github repository to enable my scenario? ;-)
        Again, very nice work!

          I am afraid that this is my final tooltip version. However it would be great if you forked my repository, extended to your needs and pushed the changes on GitHub.
          Thanks,
          Krzysztof
