.NET Forum / Visual Studio.NET / IDE / November 2005VS2005 Plugin with custom tooltip in c# code
Hi, I'm currently working on a VS.NET 2005 plugin, and I need to show a custom tooltip info in the C# code window, similar to the parameter info which is displayed when typing a function name and bracket open. Is there a way to do this? Here is another problem: I managed to listen to the EnvDTE80.TextDocumentKeyPressEvents event, but is there an event for listening to selection changes, when the user moves around the cursor? SelectionEvents.OnChange only fires when selecting another file in the IDE. Thanks in advance! greetings, Daniel Amesberger Hi Daniel, >I'm currently working on a VS.NET 2005 plugin, and I need to show a custom >tooltip info in the C# code window, similar to the parameter info which is >displayed when typing a function name and bracket open. It appears you need a custom text marker to display the tooltip with C# code, A text marker is a floating range of text in a buffer that can affect the display and behavior of a region of text. Markers include breakpoints, bookmarks, wavy underlines, and read-only regions. Please refer to the corresponding VS Environment SDK doc and the follwoing Dr. Ex's WebLog article: How to: Create Custom Text Markers ms-help://MS.VSCC.v80/MS.VSIPCC.v80/MS.VSSDK.v80/dv_search/html/6e32ed81-c60 4-4a32-9012-8db3bec7c846.htm How do I implement a custom Text marker? http://blogs.msdn.com/dr._ex/archive/2004/06/09/152220.aspx Thanks!

Thanks! I currently solved that using some API calls, and it works very well. The custom text marker seems to be the better solution, I'll take a look at it. Another question: I'm listening to the OnBuildDone event, and do some script creation there. When an error occurs I'd like to add it to the error list. Is there a way to do that? I can only access the task list, but the error list is read-only... best regards, Daniel > Hi Daniel, > [quoted text clipped - 31 lines] > This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no > rights. Hi Daniel, >When an error occurs I'd like to add it to the error list. >Is there a way to do that? I am afraid there is no way to do this from an add-in in VS 2005, we will improve the Error list support through DTE interfaces in the nexe version of Visual Studio. For the issue about how to listen to the selection changes in text editor, I suggest you take a look on the IVsTextViewEvents::OnChangeCaretLine to track changes between lines. But there may no be a mechanism to detect column changes. Thanks!
