CADmep tool tips
« on: Apr 26, 2016, 17:09:03 PM »
Does anyone know the command to turn on and off the CADmep tooltips? We used to get top and bottom of pipe and other information. For some reason, now we just get layering info, associated with regular Autocad tool tips.

Thank you in advance for your help.

Bill

To revive this thread and without adding another topic ...

Does anyone know how to go about making custom tooltips?

I was thinking to add things like spool number and pallet.

I know that this topic has been talked about several times in different post, but since this is the latest, I will add to this post.

If you go to your Rollover Tooltips in your CUI, you can add an "unknown" object to the list and it has several CADmep+ options. However, I cannot test to see if this works because I don't know how to turn off "FORCETOOLTIPS" and enable Autocad Rollover tooltips. Basically, I want to do the opposite of "FORCETOOLTIPS". Any help would be appreciated.

Luckily today I came in and instead of seeing fabrication tool tips on .ITM's I hovered over, I was getting basic autocad tooltips. Usually I would run "FORCETOOLTIPS" to fix this. Since I changed my CUI the other day though, I got fabrication information. See image below. I believe this might help some people out there but I still don't know how to get this to show up all the time.

CUI -> Enter
Click Rollover Tooltips on the elft
Click Edit Objects Button on middle upper right. Looks like a piece of paper with a pencil
Check Unknown
click ok
Scroll to CADmep+
Check the options you want
