Buznee Posted October 29, 2016 Share Posted October 29, 2016 Is there a way to shrink the size of the tool tips box for VR? It is way larger than it needs to be for the amount of text shown inside and it block quite a bit of the view of the rest of the instrument panel when you are hovering the mouse over items.

DerekSpeare Posted October 29, 2016 Share Posted October 29, 2016 I'd love this and have also made this suggestion. The tooltip box size should be sized dynamically based on the amount of text it is to display. It would be good to be able to change the color to something like bright green to see it better.

jimiC Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 slight necro but i've come up with a tolerable solution in the meantime until its properly fixed. edt vrtooltip.lua in the dcsworld\scripts\ui folder change the text size at line 71 to 20 or so. better readability if you are going to use them or set it to like 1 if not. starting at line 49 change the "bkg" colour settings to (best i've found so far) ["a"] = .3, ["b"] = 1, ["g"] = 1, ["r"] = 1, makes the box darker shade but more transparent, can pretty much see through it.

The correct file to edit is "vrtooltip.DLG" - I made a few tweaks. Thanks for leading the way :thumbup: I find setting line 71 to "30" makes the text nice and readable for me.

jimiC Posted November 22, 2016 Share Posted November 22, 2016 Sorry my bad .dLG confirmed Did you change the a rgb values at all? I found it was really trial and error on those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DerekSpeare Posted November 22, 2016 Share Posted November 22, 2016 I set ["a"] = to .3 and left it at that. I didn't see any difference, but that's ok. The ability to change the text size, however, is huge!
