Seeking a modification of Ribbon.button.superTip content - for a customised ribbon button - to remove References to file.Name and to hyperlinks to Application.help

The attached/embedded .GIF shows HOME tab page of Visio 2013. On LHS there is a Custom button added via Ribbon XML. It is compared with a built-in Button supertip (RHS).

User generated image
The supertip text for the Custom Button has extra text I dont require (contains file name and 'Tell me more'). Both these texts hyperlink to Visio help at this page: "View, manage, and install add-ins in Office programs.... When you enable an add-in, it adds custom commands and new features to Office programs that help increase your productivity. Because add-ins can be used by hackers to do malicious harm to your computer, you can use add-in security settings to change their behavior."

EE expert Scott Helmers confirmed to me that this is a real issue (not just a user error) and that it applies to  Visio 2010, 2013 & 2016.

Is there a further XML Button property that I can specify to avoid this extra text, that does NOT occur for the superTip help of any Built-in Visio ribbon Button?
Thanks
Kelvin

I run into HD problems, and I lost sight of this question.
So my apologies for late response, Dr Tribos. Your comment was very helpful and much appreciated
Kelvin.
No worries, thanks for the update
