Tooltip questions

Classic Servoy

Hi, I have a few questions about Tooltips that I was hoping someone might be able to help with.

  1. When using html tags and just a comment it adds a space. ie
<html></html>
``` gives a tooltip of 1 space when infact there should be no tooltip visible.
2. Is there a CSS property that controls the background colour of the toolips.
3. Why do Shapes and TabPanels not have Tooltips.

Many thanks

Hi Caroline,

Don’t know if you’re still looking for an answer for this but anyhow:

  1. Is still the same in Servoy 6.1. Apparently, if the tooltip is not empty a tooltip is shown, which kinda makes sense, but you could file an issue for it. In the meanwhile you could consider storing comments in a custom designTimeProperty.
  2. Yes, there is. You can use any valid html for formatting tooltips. Here is an example: Creating Sexy Tooltips with Just CSS | WebFX
  3. Feature request? Or fake it, by adding an empty transaparent label?

Omar
