TipStyleRowConnector Property

Returns or sets a value that determines whether a tip will be displayed when the mouse pauses over a row connector line.
Syntax
'Declaration
 
Public Property TipStyleRowConnector As TipStyle
public TipStyle TipStyleRowConnector {get; set;}
Remarks

This property determines whether the lines connecting the rows of the band or the grid controlled by the specified override will be capable of displaying pop-up tips. When using hierarchical recordsets, often the parent record of a band will be out of view, above the top or below the bottom of the control. Row connector tips are a convenient way to discover which record is the parent of the data currently being displayed without having to scroll the control.

Row connector tips display data from a record that is attached to the connector line when the mouse has come to rest over the line for a period of time. The tip displays the name and value of one field in the record, as determined by the ScrollTipField property of the band in which the line is located.

When the mouse pointer passes over a connector line, it changes to a special connector line cursor that indicates the direction of the record whose data is being displayed in the pop-up tip. Normally, this cursor is an upward-pointing double arrow and the pop-up tip displays data from the previous record connected to line. But if the CTRL key on the keyboard is depressed, the mouse pointer changes to a downward-pointing double arrow and the pop-up tip displays data from the following record connected to line.

Example
Following code sets TipStyleScroll and TipStyleRowConnector on the layout's override and band 0 override.
