Dear Asobo,

I am now putting preflight covers for a couple of my projects and I need to put my own tooltips for a couple of elements, they are air data probes, not pitot tubes and for the life of me i have tried everything, I cannot decipher the EX1 behaviors and the documentation is not deep enought to work this out.

Is this supported? we putting custom tooltips on exteriors? and on specific covers?

Best,
Raul

Hello @SimbolFSReborn,

Can you try to put your tooltips inside <SaveParameters ID="Interaction_Parameters"></SaveParameters> and let me know if it’s better ?

See this post.

Many thanks, so for the covers, instead of tooltip_ID, I put this:

<SaveParameters ID="Interaction_Parameters">
	            <TOOLTIPS_TITLE>'AIR PROBE XXXX'</TOOLTIPS_TITLE>
		        <TOOLTIPS_TITLE_IS_DYNAMIC>True</TOOLTIPS_TITLE_IS_DYNAMIC>
			  </SaveParameters>

Right? thanks for the help, was going nuts lol.

Best,
Raul
