FACT(s) (Environment):
OpenEdge 10.x
SYMPTOM(s):
Getting strange symbols in tool tip help for button.
Blank tooltip displays garbage characters.
TOOLTIP "" defined in button code generates strange symbols when compiled code is run.
CAUSE:
In 10.0B and later adding a null value to a tooltip will cause random graphics to be displayed when a mouse is moved over the button after it is compiled.
Bad Example:
DEFINE BUTTON BUTTON-1
LABEL "Button 1"
Size 40 by 2.5
TOOLTIP ""
.
The definition here of TOOLTIP "" will cause graphics symbols to be displayed in place of any appropriate value (in this case no tooltip would be the expected result).
FIX:
Remove the blank reference for Tooltip in the button definition.
Good Example:
DEFINE BUTTON BUTTON-1
LABEL "Button 1"
Size 40 by 2.5
.
Alternately any non empty reference for the Tooltip will correctly display.
Good Example:
DEFINE BUTTON BUTTON-1
LABEL "Button 1"
Size 40 by 2.5
TOOLTIP "Button 1"
.
