No Bug [TC 10.50b7] different font for file tip.

[petermad]

24.05.22 Added: wincmd.ini [Configuration] FileTipWindowsOnIcon=2 shows Win32-style tip on icon, full name on shortened name, but only when Win32 style tips are enabled in settings (32/64)

The font in the file tip for shortened name when hovering the file name (not the file icon) is bold when I use FileTipWindowsOnIcon=2 but normal when I use FileTipWindowsOnIcon=0

Not confirmed. Tried with my own ini and a fresh one:

[Configuration]
FileTipWindowsOnIcon=2
FileTipWindows=1
Win32TipWindows=1

I also tried forcing a bold font for the Win32 style tip, by adding this to the resolution specific section after "save position":
FontWeightTip=700

So I need more information.

It happens when I use a bold font for the file list - like Microsoft Sans Serif,8,b - as in TC's original default font setting

Not confirmed. With beta 7, the font for the file tip (shortened name) is always the same as the font in the dialog box. This was a bug in TC 10, it used the standard tooltip font which should only be used for the Win32 style tip window. In Total Commander 9.51 it was still correct.

Maybe you compared with TC10?

I can reproduce it with fhis ini file:

Code: Select all

[Configuration]
Win32TipWindows=1
FileTipWindows=1
FileTipWindowsOnIcon=2

[AllResolutions]
FontWeight=700
FontSize=9
FontName=Segoe UI

Then it looks like this when I hover the file name: https://madsenworld.dk/tcmd/tooltipbold.png
And it looks like this when I hover the file icon: https://madsenworld.dk/tcmd/tooltipnormal1.png

If I add OleComments=0 to the ini file - it looks like this when I hover the icon: https://madsenworld.dk/tcmd/tooltipnormal2.png

The screenshots are from Window 7, but I can reproduce it With Windows 10 as well. As yu can see from the screenshots - it IS tested with TC 10.50b7 (x64)

Your 3 screenshots from your last post are all correct. The font should be the same as the listbox font when overlaying over the file name. So when you use a bold font in the listbox, TC will use a bold font for the tips too.

The Win32 style floating tip will use the default tooltip font, the same as in the button bar.

But then when I use FileTipWindowsOnIcon=0 (or remove the parameter), then I get the non-bold font when I hover the file NAME: https://madsenworld.dk/tcmd/tooltipnormal3.png - that is not consistant.

PS I prefer the non-bold font, like it has always been.

That's not the overlaying tooltip, it's the standard floating tooltip you get with Win32TipWindows=1. It uses the font set for tooltips, while the one overlaying the original file name needs to use the same font as the listbox font.

Aha, I just thought that if using Win32TipWindows=1 results in non-bold tooltip, that it would stay that way also when using FileTipWindowsOnIcon=2 (assuming that Win32TipWindows is still set to 1)

Well, it does stay that way for the free-floating tooltip. However, the tip overlaying the name will have the same font as the listbox.

OK - this can be moved to: "TC Behaviour which will not be changed".
