How to make a tooltip appear immediately in Silverlight?
- by Edward Tanguay
In WPF, I get a tooltip to appear immediately like this:
TextBlock tb = new TextBlock();
tb.Text = name;
ToolTip tt = new ToolTip();
tt.Content = "This is some info on " + name + ".";
tb.ToolTip = tt;
tt.Cursor = Cursors.Help;
ToolTipService.SetInitialShowDelay(tb, 0);
This makes the user experience better since if the user wants to look at the tooltips of five items on the page, he doesn't have to wait that long second for each one.
But since Silverlight does not have SetInitialShowDelay, what is a workaround to make the tooltip appear immediately?
