[0.16.28] Wide blueprint tooltips flash on/off
Posted: Sat Mar 10, 2018 7:48 pm
With a blueprint preview/tooltip that is wide enough to overlap where the cursor is, the tooltip will tend to flash on and off very quickly (possibly cycling every frame, did not measure this), probably due to the cursor position over top the preview when it appears. Refer to the screenshot below.
In this case, the wide tooltip was achieved with a very long blueprint name.
Screenshot of the blueprint tooltip in question (on a frame where it's visible): https://imgur.com/of0kkPg - Notice that the tooltip is wide enough to overlap where the cursor is in this case (cursor is over the active 4DEH blueprint). The problem does not occur if the blueprint is on the right-hand column of the book's blueprint array.
I don't have any capability of capturing video offhand, but hopefully the problem is straightforward enough for that not to be needed.
Config details in case they end up being relevant:
