Title: Calendar Button Tooltip
Post by: trent on May 22, 2014, 10:49:07 PM

Hi Bruce,

The Tooltips have been disabled for all tablet devices and this is working correctly except for on the Calendar Lookup buttons.

Regards,
Trent

>> The Tooltips have been disabled for all tablet devices

is the app in "mobile mode" or did you just override the CreateTip method?

cheers
Bruce

Hi Bruce,

The app is in desktop mode with Tooltips disabled:

WebHandler > ProcessLink:

if p_web.IsMenuTouch()
  p_web.site.NoTips = TRUE
end!If

It has to be tested on a tablet in desktop mode.

Trent

I'll build this into the 8.13 release, but in the short term you can do the following;

WebHandler, CreateDateInput method, before ParentCall

if p_web.site.NoTips
    p_web.SetOption(p_Options,'buttonText','')
    p_web.SetOption(p_Options,'prevText','')
    p_web.SetOption(p_Options,'nextText','')
End

Cheers
Bruce

Hi Bruce,

Tried this but it still shows an empty tooltip on the first press.

yes, I've been looking at this, but unfortunately I'm not sure there's a lot that can be done.
The code which sets the tip (or "title" as it's known) is set in the jQuery-ui-xxx,js file - where the xxx part changes with each new version of the jquery-ui release. Plus the code is "minimized" which makes the code harder to find.

So, the short answer is that it's fixable, but it's a pain to fix - and more specifically a pain to keep it fixed.
So the question is - how big a deal is this for you?

It needs to be fixed, but now you have told me where to look I can check it tomorrow. Will post the fix here (if I fix it) :)

Hi Bruce,

It seems that the 'buttonText' option for the Calendar widget doesn't disable the tooltip if set to blank.

Putting this in the ProcessLink embed does work:

  if p_web.IsMenuTouch()
    p_web.site.NoTips = TRUE
    p_web.Script('$(".ui-datepicker-trigger").removeAttr("title");')
  end!If

The script removes the 'title' attribute and viola! Tooltips no longer appear on the calendar buttons.

You might even be able to go a step further and remove all 'title' attributes in one go:

  p_web.Script('$(this).removeAttr("title");')

Trent

Hi Bruce,

Also found that Browse in-row buttons still had their tooltips showing so now the code to fix looks like:

  if p_web.IsMenuTouch()
    p_web.site.NoTips = TRUE
    p_web.Script('$(".ui-datepicker-trigger").removeAttr("title");')
    p_web.Script('$(".ui-button").removeAttr("title");')
  end!If

Trent

Hi Bruce,

This isn't fixed in v8.13.

Also the File Upload button still shows the tooltip as well. I've manually fixed the problems by using the below code:

    p_web.Script('$(".ui-button").removeAttr("title");')
    p_web.Script('$(".nt-fileinput-button").removeAttr("title");')
    p_web.Script('$(".ui-datepicker-trigger").removeAttr("title");')

Trent

Hi Trent,

Stay with this work-around for now. (And let me know if you find any more.) Unfortunately I'll need to find a better method for the code, but we may as well do them all at the same time once you've got a complete list...

Cheers
Bruce
