I tried using something like this to set the tool tip of a CMenu item (as described here) but it is just being displayed in a single line and the line break is not visible.
// read control id
UINT id = menu->GetMenuItemID(1235);
// modify caption and add tooltip?
menu->ModifyMenu( id, MF_BYCOMMAND, id, "Click here\nThis is the tooltip for the menu item ...");
I also tried to set the caption directly in the visual studio resource designer of the menu item with the same effect. Can you give me any hints on whats wrong? I am using VS2008 on windows 7.
Any help is appreciated!
