Tooltip for Tabpages #394

Closed TjeuSijtsema closed 6 months ago

TjeuSijtsema commented 7 months ago

Hi there, first off i am absolutely loving this nuget package! it makes it super easy to make a slick looking app. the issue im having is that i would like to add tooltips to the tabpages. When i try to do this in the property manager they wont show up. Also tried it by putting: {tabname}.ToolTipText = "Tooltip Tabpage Test"; in the designer.cs

but for some reason the tooltip does not want to show when hovering over a tab with the mouse. is there a way i could get this to work? sincerely

First of all, you know that this library is marked as obsolete, let's say like this. Is no longer supported.

Second, is not so easy. You have to make it yourself, by modifying MaterialTabSelector. You can add a Tooltip object in this control and change its text in OnMouseMove event for each tabs in selector.
