Container Tooltips back the way they were pre-LU12?

Djanee · #1 07-20-2005, 02:50 PM

Especially in the bank, the tooltip window is getting unweildy. When I go to click on a 24 slot box in my bank, the tooltip window with all the contents of the box is so big that it covers up the entire bank window. I really dislike this new change that shows the contents of the bag in the tooltip.

Is it possible to still have the old information pre-LU12 in a modded tooltip? I think I know enough to mod it so that the tooltip is blank in the short term, but I really would like to see the old pre-LU12 bag tool tip info. I'd basically like to see everything that's there now minus the container contents info.

quick fix -- increase time to show tooltips in the EQ2 options

My hubby posted to the EQ2Players boards and a dev got back to him about this. Post is here

Basically, use the ingame command /cl_tooltip_bagcontents false

p.s. you will need to relog for the change to take effect.

Tracking down why the option didn't make it live.

Item tooltips get cached on the client for obvious reasons and the bag ones don't get updated unless something in the bag changes. So move an item or change the slot and the tooltip will start showing/not showing the contents.

Entering a bug now to make sure the tooltip gets marked dirty by the client when this option changes.

EQ2 Options -> User Iterface -> Game Windows

6th option down is "Show container contents in tooltip". Uncheck the box and you are set. It did take a minute for it to actually take effect in game for me.

That option didn't exist when this thread was posted.

Where's this cached, and is there any way to grab it?
Basically, I wanna be able to write a script that posts the contents of our guild's bank to our forum.
Also, when the guild vaults are in, will they operate in a similar fashion tooltip-wise?
Thanks,
