Toolbars - Changing Tool Tip Text Dynamically 1

[shetlandbob]

Can you change the tool tip text of a toolbar button in your code?

i.e. if flag = true tooptip = abcd
else if flag = false tooltip = qwerty

 

[Cagliostro]

handle WN_NOTIFY from your toolbar with
lpToolText->hdr.code that equals to TTN_NEEDTEXT.
lpToolText you will egt like this:
lpToolText = (LPTOOLTIPTEXT)lParam;

now change the text:
lpToolText->lpszText = L"some message"

Also before set text you should check if the message you get is from your toolbar
if(lpToolText->hdr.idFrom == ID_YOUR_TOOLBAR)...
