PG2 no Tooltip for graphic Element with EnableInput set to false
Hi,
I made a graphic element PG2 in the Object Type Structure of my PID Control Module to display the PV, SP and Out values.
If the Enable Input property is left to the default "True" (which is fine) I have a mouseover tooltip showing the Object name and description. That is perfect because it is what I want.
If I set the Enbale Input to false I no longer have the mouseover Tooltip which is bad in my case.
Does anyone know how to sow the tooltip even the Enable Input property is set to false ?
Thanks

Hello,
as far as I know PG2 is designed to work like that.
I think you can, as a workaround, create a Tooltip Invoker (right click on your element in items window to see the list of invokers) for your element.

Are you using an Input Field subelement to display your values? Is your Tooltip element hosted by your element or one of the items belonging to your element? It should be hosted by the element (top level) so that it does not depend on another subelement's properties.
Thanks to both of you,
That is the work-around I used this morning. I've created a Tooltip as Element Hosted Input property for the graphic element in the PG2 graphic display.
Luckily, I only have some of these values, it didn't take too long...
Issue resolved !

As Ronny Liström told, if you set Enable Input false you switch off all interactions because it is a global switch.
You want the Tooltip, other may want other properties, so it could not be like that.
Anyhow the solution is great, I did not know, which means your question helped me to gather a new knowledge, thanks!
