ToolTip with InstallOptions
 

I read the plugin but didn't understand.
When ..FindWindow and ..GetDialogItem... :weird:
uh,:confused:
How did he find those numbers? (#32770 and 1016)
Is it possible tooltip on buttons, text, combobox and so on?
:rolleyes:

1) Did you read the docs about those "numbers"?
2) Yes, is possible to add toottips to the common controls, just read the docs and follow the examples :D

I read but there is nothing about them. There is only one example an no explanation. I,m talking about ToolTips.zip, NSIS plugin. Where are these docs ?

I discovered this, but only works after pressin or marking a box, it means, after an "abort" in Function LeaveCustom.

Function LeaveCustom
ReadINIStr $1 "$exedir\m.ini" "Field 2" "HWND"
ToolTips::Classic $1 "Tip" 0x00ffbbbb 0x00111111 "font"

And, before touching anything ?

Most probably you need to call ToolTips::Classic between MUI_INSTALLOPTIONS_INITDIALOG (or InstallOptions::InitDialog) and MUI_INSTALLOPTIONS_SHOW (or InstallOptions::Display).
You also need to get the HWND of the control using GetDlgItem rather than reading from the INI file. The control ID will be 1200 + field num - 1.

lolz :)

Let's start:
From the tooltips readme doc:
And now, let's see the example the example:
obviously, you MUST read the docs about FindWindow & GetDlgItem if you don't know what does params are.
In this case 1016 is the control ID, taken from an external app, such as resource hacker.

Joel, the last param (font_size_px) does not make any difference in the font if I change it to 36, 100 or even 900. Am I missing something? Thanks.

Thanks for patience but:
I downloaded Tooltips.zip but there is no *.doc inside.
The two micro examples and the micro txt are not illuminatives.
Where each command go? (function, section, wich?)
Where goes ToolTips::Classic hwndControl "Tooltip_body"...?
Thanks tip resource tuner. Ok.
I,ve read FindWindow & GetDlgItem about 1000 times last 3 years but never could make it work or I never understood. Still don,t.
Font: Works, but the smallest size is still too big (no problem).
Always classic, never Modern UI.

OK FINISH !!!
There it goes:
Function ShowCustom
InstallOptions::initDialog /NOUNLOAD "$exedir\m.ini"
Pop $hwnd
FindWindow $3 "#32770" "" $HWNDPARENT
GetDlgItem $1 $3 1201 ;Field 2 here
ToolTips::Classic $1 "Tip.." 0x00ffeeee "0x00000000" system
InstallOptions::show
Pop $0
FunctionEnd

Thanks Afrow UK
Thanks Joel

Yeah, a bug in there :D
I'll fix it today.

Sorry, for the delay, I was out of my PC.

Joel needs time to be with the ladies :p
