Controls ToolTip content displayed by mapping labels to object types. Editing labels in the Common task should be used as a temporary test. For permanent modifications to delivered ToolTips, edit the labels in the Catalog task.

ToolTips display information about graphic objects in the model. This information can include name, part class, part number, and weight of the object. You can view ToolTips by pausing your pointer over an object in your workspace.

Show object ToolTips

Turns the display of ToolTips with object properties on or off. When this option is selected, even object types without labels mapped to them display the name of the object as a ToolTip. When this option is cleared, no object ToolTips display. By default, this option is selected.

Object Type

Specifies a three-dimensional object type. Click to display the Select Object Type dialog box. For more information, see Select Object Type Dialog Box.

Label to Use for the ToolTip

Specifies the label content for the ToolTip that displays when the corresponding object type is selected in the model. Click Catalog Data Labels to display the Select Label dialog box. For more information, see Select Label Dialog Box.

Edit Tooltip

Displays the Edit Label dialog for the selected ToolTip. This functionality is not available if a ToolTip is not selected. For more information, see Label Editor Dialog Box.

To enable recursive expansion of embedded labels, the report RFM file must set the ToParse flag to Yes, as in the following example:

    <DATA
     Column="ShortMaterialDescription"
     ToParse="yes"
     Visible="yes"/>
