Hello
If i set screentip.Text for any control on the ribbon, and move mouse point to this control, the screentip is displayed. Now, if I press any key during displaing screentip (f.e. Esc, space or ’0’) i receive a message box with error:

An unhandled exception of type ’System.ObjectDisposedException’ occurred in System.Windows.Forms.dll

Additional information: Cannot access a disposed object.

I have reproduced this error on the very simple application - with only one form with ribbon and single button on it. This application works with this error on two my computers. But it works without any problems on the computer of my coleague and on the virtual machine. So I am not sure that it’s 100% reproducable.

My system configuration:
VS2005, Net 2.0
Elegant Ribbon 3.1 + fix (see topic "Default theme + license")
Windows XP sp 2 eng

The stack trace for the error is:

Have you any ideas what can be a reason of such error?
Thanks in advance,

It looks like the bug is already fixed so the fix will be available in the next release.The reason for the exception throwing is that the Control.Handle property is used after the control is actually disposed. This results in an attempt to create a window handle which is not allowed by that moment. Thank you!

Hi,
Can you tell me approx date of the new release of Elegant Ribbon? We are going to release our application at the end of this year, but this bug is rather serious to simply ignore it. Of course, I can switch off all screentips, but may be it’s not necessary?
Thanks in advance,
Regards, V.D

Least of all we would like to let you down. So what do you think if we provide you with an updated 3.1 that features some bug fixes including that you are talking about?

Will you send it to me by email?
