Tooltip on a column?

[Iams]

How can you make a tooltip on a bound column of a datagrid, if possible? So
I would have different tooltips for each column. Thanks.

Hi Iams,

Although there isn't ToolTip property for bound column,
you can set ToolTip either on Column Header or on each row:

In DataGrid_ItemCreated Event

ListItemType itemType = e.Item.ItemType;

// Set ToolTip on Header:
if(itemType == ListItemType.Header){
TableCell cell = e.Item.Cells[colIndex];
Cell.ToolTip = tool tip text;
}

// Set ToolTip on each row:
if(itemType == ListItemType.Item ||
ListItemType.AlternatingItem){
TableCell cell = e.Item.Cells[colIndex];
Cell.ToolTip = tool tip text;
}
