Gets or sets the tooltip, shown when the user hovers the mouse over the item in the Gallery.

Namespace:  ESRI.ArcGISExplorer.Application

Assembly:  ESRI.ArcGISExplorer.Application (in ESRI.ArcGISExplorer.Application.dll) Version: 2.0.0.1500 (2.0.0.1500)

Syntax

C#
public string Tooltip { get; set; }
Visual Basic (Declaration)
Public Property Tooltip As String

Field Value

A string representing the tooltip for this GalleryItem.

Remarks

The Tooltip of a GalleryItem may be null or an empty string; however it is recommended that each GalleryItem has a useful tooltip to provide additional information about the action or effect of choosing that specific GalleryItem.

Examples

The example code below shows a very simple Gallery class which displays 3 items; clicking on each item will zoom the display so that a specific location is in the center of the map, and the current altitude/map scale is maintained.
