HoverHelpControl

HoverHelpControl pairs a Label trigger with a titled HoverPanelControl, defaulting the popup's header to "Help". It gives pages a labeled, titled help affordance as an alternative to the icon-based HoverHelp, for contexts where a text link plus a headed popup reads better than an icon.

Purpose

  • Renders a Label trigger paired with a titled HoverPanelControl, so the popup carries a visible header rather than relying on content alone.
  • Defaults HeaderText to "Help", giving callers a ready-to-use help affordance without configuring a title per instance.

Context

  • Namespace: SAIF.Presentation.Web.Controls.V2.AJAX
  • Assembly/package: SAIF.Presentation.Web.Controls.AJAX.Infragistics111 (packaged in SAIF.BOF.Presentation.Web.Infragistics111)
  • Base class: SAIFAJAXControlAncestor

Behavioral notes

  • This control composes an internal HoverPanelControl and forwards its content/header configuration to it; it has no bind/validate behavior of its own since it does not implement iAutoBindingControl.*

Constraints and usage notes

  • Requires the AJAX Control Toolkit (AjaxControlToolkit.dll) at runtime, transitively through the composed HoverPanelControl.

Note: Statements marked with * were inferred from code structure, naming conventions, or contextual evidence where direct confirmation was not available in source artifacts. Statements marked with ** could not be confirmed; treat as unknown until verified.
