Administrators Lucas Posted January 15, 2020 Administrators Share Posted January 15, 2020 Don't hover over on things that have tooltips? Tooltips are there to convey additional information. You can't disable them. You can adjust their speed in the preferences. Which ones are you on about? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaptainPlanet Posted January 15, 2020 Share Posted January 15, 2020 Honestly I've always wished I could disable them, they do really get in the way and slowing their speed only slightly mitigates the problem. Especially on the main squad screen and during team selection in tactics. 1 hour ago, Lucas said: Don't hover over on things that have tooltips? Tooltips are there to convey additional information.

Would love to know what 'additional information' these add Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tooltips only ever appear if your mouse cursor is over an item (usually a button or some text) that has one and is idling over it. Even if you could disable them (you can't), it would be for everything which means you'll miss out on the cases where you do need it. Can't say I see the issue, but I can see your point that if it's not adding anything then you don't need that particular one. There's tooltips everywhere in all applications. Even leaving my mouse idle in this text box as I respond, it brings up a tooltip telling me what I can by typing or right-clicking. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even leaving my mouse idle in this text box as I respond, it brings up a tooltip telling me what I can by typing or right-clicking. There are certain places where idling over happens often and the size of the text box obscures other stuff, having to keep the mouse moving to avoid or remembering to leave the mouse idle somewhere else is a mild inconvenience, but is an inconvenience nonetheless. Most of them is fine, as you say it's a normal software feature, but when some of them get in the way and literally offer no added value, it's just a bit of an annoying UI design for me. Thankfully if I hover over his name, the handy tooltip tells me his name! This is the main one that irks me by getting in the way, because it's bloody huge and after I've learned what UI actions I can take with left/right click it adds no value for the next 5,000 hours that I play the game.

Can see why that might be annoying, but it's one I rarely see when I play. You can drag and drop the pkd icons, or even swap players by dragging and dropping their names, etc. Can see why the verboseness of it is annoying for you, though.

But it isn't for me, or the other 100 tooltips that just display exactly what I'm hovering over. So just thought I'd voice my feedback on it. If there was a global tooltip off option as part of UI customising, I'd 100% pick it, because it literally never adds any value for me at all on any screen, but there isn't. It's not like it's a major issue but it does very mildly impact my overall enjoyment of the UI. Edited January 15, 2020 by CaptainPlanet Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
