Description

How to show SelectionBox tooltip only when the tooltip has content.

Solution

To achieve the desired result, you can add a DataTrigger to set the Tooltip to null when the corresponding property is an empty string. For example, you can define the SelectionBoxTemplate as follows:

<DataTemplate x:Key="SelectionBoxTemplate"> 
    <TextBlock Text="{Binding Name}"> 
        <TextBlock.Style> 
            <Style TargetType="TextBlock"> 
                <Setter Property="ToolTip" Value="{Binding Tooltip}" /> 
                <Style.Triggers> 
                    <DataTrigger Binding="{Binding Tooltip}" Value=""> 
                        <Setter Property="ToolTip" Value="{x:Null}" /> 
                    </DataTrigger> 
                </Style.Triggers> 
            </Style> 
        </TextBlock.Style>                     
    </TextBlock> 
</DataTemplate>
