Tooltip not working in Progress version 11.3.2

Posted by jashandeep.dhillon on 01-Aug-2016 23:39

We have got an application running in Progress version 11.3.2 which is not showing any tool tip text whenever the mouse is place over that icon.

However when testing the same application with version 11.3.3 this works alright.

We have to support the application on 11.3.2 and an upgrade to 11.3.3 is not feasible.

Has anyone encountered this before. Is there any workaround for this.

Thank You Matt again for the valuable suggestion. It seems the  prowin32.exe.manifest file was missing in the setup.

After placing that file it's working alright now.

There weren't any tool tip bug fixes or functional changes in 11.3.x so it's likely that this is a configuration issue or a problem with the installation.

You tried 11.3.2 and 11.3.3. Was this on the same machine or on different machines?

Do you see the issue on every machine with 11.3.2 or only on one machine?

Hi Matt,

Thanks for the reply. I tried 11.3.2 and 11.3.3 on the same machine. This issue happens on all the machines with 11.3.2.

Does prowin32.exe.manifest (or prowin.exe.manifest if using 64-bit) exist in the bin directories of both 11.3.2 and 11.3.3? If the manifest files exist in both bin directories, are the files identical?

Just a nerve chilling curiosity... what ties you so hard to 11.3.2, that 11.3.3 won't accomplish?

(Hope not being rude)
