  Since there is a ApplyNodeCellToolTipText event and a C1TreeViewToolTipTextEventArgs I am guessing that there is a simple way to set a tooltip for an individual C1Treenode, but I can’t find it in any documentation.
  
  So, how is that done?

  I currently use the following code:

    Private Sub C1TreeView1_MouseHover(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles C1TreeView1.MouseHover
          Dim ptv = C1TreeView1.PointToScreen(Point.Empty)
          Dim p = Cursor.Position
          p.Offset(-ptv.X, -ptv.Y)
          setHoverNode(C1TreeView1.GetNodeAtPoint(p))
      End Sub
      Private Sub setHoverNode(node As C1TreeNode)
          If Not Equals(node, hoverNode) Then
              sttInfo.Hide()
              hoverNode = node
              If IsNothing(hoverNode) Then
                  sttInfo.SetToolTip(C1TreeView1, "")
              Else
                  sttInfo.SetToolTip(C1TreeView1, "Node:" + hoverNode.GetValue)
              End If
          End If
      End Sub
      Private Sub C1TreeView1_MouseMove(sender As Object, e As MouseEventArgs) Handles C1TreeView1.MouseMove
          Dim p = New Point(e.X, e.Y)
          Dim node = C1TreeView1.GetNodeAtPoint(p)
          setHoverNode(C1TreeView1.GetNodeAtPoint(p))
      End Sub
  
      Private hoverNode As C1TreeNode = Nothing

  Hi Kingman,

  To set a tooltip for a C1Treenode or even an individual cell of a C1TreeNode, you can directly use the ApplyNodeCellToolTipText event of the C1TreeView. In the event handler, you can use the “e.Node” property to determine the hovered node and then use the “e.TooltipText” property to set the required Tooltip text. Please see the attached sample for reference.

  Hi Kartic,
  
  Thanks for your quick response and solution. I was missing that you had to turn ShowToolTips on to activate the ApplyNodeCellToolTipText event when required.
  
  It works perfectly! The c1treeview has certainly matured into a great control.
