JS screens turning off permanently if the screen is highlighted by the tooltip system

Version: SU/AAU/WU XX - 1.38.2.0

Severity: Low

**Bug description:JS instrument stops rendering if the tablet is highlighted by the mouse or is a child of the highlighted object

Repro steps: We are using a Stow/unstow animation for our tablet which allows you to click on the base to hide and show it. HIGHLIGHT_NODE_ID was set to the tablet’s holding base. The holding base is large enough that its bounding box encapsulates the tablet itself.

When moving the mouse on the show/hide clickspot, the tablet’s holder is highlighted and with it, the tablet itself is also highlighted. At this point the screen goes dark and will not re-render unless the flight is restarted.

We have checked the code and there is no code that turns it off that’s connected to the clickspot and stowing/unstowing.

What is also odd is that while the base is the highlighed item, the tablet and its screen are also blue.
