clients.
Remarks
ToolTipML is multilanguage enabled. This means that it can contain a list of strings for use by different languages. The text that is used is selected according to the user's current language setting. For more information, see Multilanguage Development.
Tooltips are supported only on actions in the ribbon, not on fields or FactBoxes.
The ToolTipML property value has the following format.
Copy Code | |
---|---|
<Language ID>=<tooltip> |
<Language ID> is a Windows standard three-letter language ID and <caption> is the caption text for this language. Semicolons are used to separate entries.
In the following example, values are set for Danish (DAN) and English (ENG).

---|---|
DAN=Dette felt indeholder kundens navn;ENG=This field contains the customer name |
How to Enter ToolTipML Values
You can enter values for the ToolTipML property in two ways.
- Enter a ToolTip
Property value. This value is inserted in ToolTipML as the
value for the language that is currently selected. If the language
is set to Danish when a value is entered in ToolTip, ToolTipML is
updated with a DAN=<value> string. You have to use the
abbreviated language name (for example, DAN for Danish).
- Choose the AssistEdit button in the
ToolTipML Value field to open the Multilanguage editor. This
is a page with two columns: Language and Value. The Language column
is populated with all languages defined by Windows. Enter tooltip
text in the Value field for the appropriate language and then
choose the OK button to close the editor. If you press the
Esc key to close the editor, the ToolTipML field is not
updated.
