Hello,

I am still playing with my tooltip problem discussed here: [ToolTips and tags - Classic Servoy - Servoy Community](http://forum.servoy.com/viewtopic.php?t=790)

I just tried with the latest version (RC7), but things here got messed up a little more. I have a portal with one field (a combobox with a valuelist, showing names, returning IDs).

1. if I check “displayTags” on that field, the values disappear.

2. if I want to use a tool tip of the form %%field%%, I see

2a. with displayTags turned off “%%field%%” as a tool tip (perfectly displayed)

2b. with displayTags turned on the little black dot that is described in the discussion mentioned above.

It looks like you can either see data or tool tips…

Any ideas?

Thanks  
Patrick

To add a little to this issue: I don’t see any tooltip in a portal, more than one field and multiline or singleline doesn’t matter…

can you test this one?  
it is a list view (build on top of the orders table of the example database)

at my place it works fine.  
the on the combo field i show a tag %%shipcountry%%  
and on the employee field (3th field)  
i show related data.. (the employees name)
