Disabling the mouseover popup on multi line text fields

Hi
Our users are complaining that it's really annoying that when they move the mouse over the content of a multi line field like the description field on cases a pop up showing the content of the field appears. I have to admit that it's very annoying.

I guess that there must be some way of disabling this by use of jscript. Can anyone help me?

Kind Regards, Thomas Rath

RE: Disabling the mouseover popup on multi line text fields

Hi Thomas,

You should remove the content of the 'title' attribute. That way there will be no popup.

Javascript (not tested): document.getElementsByTagName("new_fieldname")[0].removeAttribute("title");

replace "new_fieldname" with your multilinefield.

Good luck,

RE: Disabling the mouseover popup on multi line text fields

Testet in ie/chrome

Jquery way:

In form onload event where you would prevent this popup on field.

and in field onchange as the field can be changed clicking on it.

yourorg_remove_property_title

pasing parameter "#your_fieldname"

In webresource define 2 function ore one if you want to pass all parameters directly

// Example
// yourorg_remove_property_title
// Fx "#description"
function yourorg_remove_property_title(elementselector)
{
        yourorg_change_property(elementselector, "title", "");
}

// Example
//   yourorg_change_property

// selector , property , property value
// Parameters ("#description", "title", "")
//

function yourorg_change_property(elementselector, prop, value)
{
        try {
            $(elementselector).prop(prop, value);
        }
        catch (e)
        {
          // var msg = e.message;

           // console.log(msg);
        }

}

RE: Disabling the mouseover popup on multi line text fields

Hi Thomas,

I had tried to write the code for Mouseover but was had some issues in the past. Is there any way that you could let me know how to get the preview of the text in a popup.

Thanks and Cheers

Hi Ravi

The code was written by a former colleague of mine who is a developer. I'm not able to help you. Sorry.
