N/A Tooltips


 

Hi,

I'm sure this is pretty low on the list of priorities in the grand scheme of things, but I notice that we end up with several TWS "Tooltips" windows that only contain the text "N/A". Those are completely useless, and they don't disappear like regular Windows tooltips; they just hang around until one manually closes them. I was wondering if IBC could close these windows automatically as soon as they show up. They offer no useful information, and just clutter up the many windows we have open.

Thanks
Jimmy

Can you provide some explicit examples? I don¡¯t recall seeing these things.

Ah, I thought these tooltips were plaguing?everyone. I don't even know from which TWS windows they come from... maybe charts?

Very odd. No I¡¯ve never seen one of those.

Do they just appear for no reason, or is it when you do something or hover over something in particular?

?

In any case, it looks like a TWS bug to me, and IBC really isn¡¯t in the business of papering over IB¡¯s bugs. Probably best to report it to them.
