Posted - Jun 21 2006 : 1:12:50 PM My game scren is becoming cluttered and i want to be able to get rid of a few labels and the like. My idea was so that when i highlight an item for sale in the shop (a basic command box) i want a small label to appear beside my mouse to show what the item does. Does anyone know how to do this? i think i know how to detect when the butotn is highlighted (by using the got focus command) its just the idea of the lable i cant get.
P.S my idea came form windows when you hold your mouse over an item in the task bar and it tells you its name etc.
Thanks for any help J(king kirb)

Posted - Jun 21 2006 : 4:59:36 PM Well... I think every control has a property called "ToolTipText" which is the text that is shown when you hover over the control. You can set that to whatever you want to show and then you have what your looking for without needing to use a label.
