Knowledge Base support case for Likno Web Tooltips Builder, abstracted and stripped of all user’s private info.


Initial Email From: John
Initial Email Subject: Application Feedback
Support Case Month: April 2012

It's probably something I'm not doing right but just recently any web page I create that uses the tooltips has both horizontal and vertical scrollbars.

The horizontal and vertical scrollbars are even present from within the Likno tooltips preview pane, even on a brand new blank default project.

My older tooltips projects are fine, only the newly created ones have scrollbars. If you need more information from me my email address is {EMAIL ADDRESS REMOVED}. All in all though, I just love all your software!

It has changed the way I build web sites! 🙂

Dear John,

We apologize for this, it seems that a small bug slipped into our latest release causing the scrollbars. You are only the second user to inform us about this, the first one being about an hour ahead of you.

We have just fixed this and uploaded a new release (build 210.2):

Please download it and let us know if you see any more problems.

A quick follow-up to my last email which was sent moments ago. The problem of the disappearing allwebmenus tooltips when used with modal windows only seems to be a problem in Firefox, not I.E. I'm using Firefox version 11.0

That seems to have fixed the scrollbars problem Kostas, however now I  have found something else that may be a bug.

I created an allwebmenus menu, added the tooltips to it, and everything worked fine with the new tooltips fix you just released. Next I added one more menu item to the menu and for that item I used the modal window option to pop up a modal window. The modal window appears as it should however now the tooltips have quit working.

I just discovered this and have not investigated it further yet but I thought I'd report it.

Dear John,

Are you saying that if you add a modal window in the page then the tooltips stop working altogether? Or that the specific menu item does not show a tooltip when it is set to open a modal window?

If you have a sample page online, please send me the URL so that I can check it.

Hello Kostas, I hope you enjoyed your holiday. 🙂

Are you saying that if you add a modal window in the page then the tooltips stop working altogether

Yes. Everything else works as it should, the tooltips disappear altogether in Firefox and they disappear most of the time in the Internet Explorer.

I'm using Firefox 11, IE 9, plus the current versions of allwebmenus, webmodalwindows, and webtooltips. Below is a sample page that should illustrate the problem which goes away as soon as I remove the link to the modal window script (likno-scripts/likno-modal-project.js).

Dear John,

It seems that this has to do with the timing of each library loading.

After some tests, I found that if you move the Modal Linking Code to be last (e.g. first Tooltips, then AllWebMenus, then Modal) then everything works fine!

I have also forwarded the case to our developers for further consideration.

I will let you know as soon as I have an answer.

Thank you for the follow-up Kostas, indeed, moving the modal window link code below the others does solve the problem.

Dear John,

We just released new versions for both Modal & Tooltips, which should resolve the loading order issue.

These versions have a new loading system that is also faster, and a more efficient preview.

Please download and test them, and let me know if you find any issues.
