October 18, 20205 yr Means nothing to me, but I vaguely remember seeing people complaining about it, so here's a possible solution. Let us know how it goes! https://www.msfsaddons.org/freeware/tooltip-remover Quote There’s greatness in simplicity sometimes. The UNIX philosophy of “do one thing well” applies here with this simple utility by PhutureProof which elegantly removes the cockpit tooltips from showing up when you mouse over any of the switches, buttons, etc in your cockpit - giving you an overall more immersive and realistic flight. Install it in the same way you would any other scenery or aircraft addon, by extracting the folder to your Community Folder. We are all connected..... To each other, biologically......

October 18, 20205 yr Wonder if it's the same from which has two versions. I use the one for smaller tooltips with transparent background. James

October 18, 20205 yr Yup, I would go so far as to say this is a stupid feature. Too many times I have tried to change the heading bug on the compass for example and been unable to see where the heading bug is because of the word not allowed tooltip being overlaid exactly where I am trying to look. A seriously thoughtless feature, poorly implemented. Please Asobo, give us a checkbox to be rid of the useless feature once and for all!

Yep, like when a tooltip blocks the altimeter read-out on the G1000 while you're turning the barometer knob. How did that pass alpha and beta?
October 18, 20205 yr Now if only there was a mod for the map so that the airport info has transparent background. James
October 18, 20205 yr Administrators I just saw this on another site. Wouldn't turning it off or "hide tooltips" get rid of it? Options/General/Accessibility/Show Tooltips Charlie AronAVSIM Board of Directors-ADMIN/Moderator-RegistrarJust going to run a Chromebook and not upgrade to a Windows computer. Too many problems with the new Sims! 😱Trying to keep peace and harmony and the will of Landru on the site seems to be a full time job!

Options/General/Accessibility/Show Tooltips Unfortunately, that option is not working at the moment. The solutions posted here are a temporarily fix until Asobo decides to fix the bug.

October 18, 20205 yr Check out https://github.com/mixMugz/msfs2020-uimod It provides a similar functionality, but allows you to toggle the tooltips on and off by pressing the alt key. Also comes in a pack of other UI mods, but you can pick and choose which ones to install.
