[SOLVED] imagebutton tooltip shows up twice

#1 Post by Exiscoming » Thu Oct 31, 2019 8:00 am

So I'd like a tooltip to show up whenever you're hovering over an image button, and I do that like this

Code: Select all

        vbox xpos 950 ypos 450:
            imagebutton:
                idle "button.png"
                hover "button-hover.png" tooltip " "
                action Jump("my_label")
        $ tooltip = GetTooltip()
        if tooltip:
        	image "tooltipGraphic.png" xpos 1000 ypos 500
This works just fine. However the problem is when I add a second button the same way. Hovering over 1 now shows both tooltips. Is there a way to give an id to the tooltip, so that only the one being hovered is shown?

And of course I find the solution literally the moment I decide to make a thread about it.

Solution:

Code: Select all

        vbox xpos 950 ypos 450:
            imagebutton:
                idle "button.png"
                hover "button-hover.png" tooltip "1"       # <-The ID should be added between the quotation marks. For example "1"
                action Jump("my_label")
        $ tooltip = GetTooltip()
        if tooltip == "1":                                           # <- Then in the if statement, make sure the tooltip equals "1" to have your item displayed.
        	image "tooltipGraphic.png" xpos 1000 ypos 500
