PointSense Plant, Cadworx, AutoCAD and Tooltips
Has anybody else had an issue with tool tips not working? Ours were working until we loaded the latest release of Pointsense ver17.5.12.20636. This is happening on all the machines we load it on. I say I have the latest version, there are probably two more versions out since I've posted this.

Re: PointSense Plant, Cadworx, AutoCAD and Tooltips
Hi,
I have no problems with tooltips, neither in AutoCAD nor in PointSense Plant.
Tested with AutoCAD 2017 and PointSense Plant versions 17.5.12.20528 and 17.5.13.21153.
Have you checked value for TOOLTIPS is set to 1?
Regards, Beate

We are running AutoCAD 2016, Cadworx 2016, and one of the newest versions of Pointsense.

Re: PointSense Plant, Cadworx, AutoCAD and Tooltips
What happens when you unload PointSense from AutoCAD?
Use the version manager of PointSense (set it to NONE and restart AutoCAD).
If the missing tooltips are caused by PointSense they should now be visible again.
If so, please contact FARO support ([email protected]) to be forwared to R&D but
if not, please check AutoCAD system variables (TOOLTIP) or contact Autodesk support.
Thanks,

Re: PointSense Plant, Cadworx, AutoCAD and Tooltips
I upgraded to the latest version with the same results. Unload Pointsense and you get CADWorx tooltips. Loade PointSense and no CADWorx tooltips.BeateM wrote:What happens when you unload PointSense from AutoCAD?
