Tool Tip is displayed on report

Hi,

When a crystal report has a sub-report, then a tool tip is displayed on the report.

How to hide that tool tip?

Hi,
Right click on Sub Report and select Format Sub Report. Under Common tab, check under X+2 against "Tool Tip Text". Remove or comment the content. The content may be even in the textbox against "Tool Tip Text".
I hope you are referring to the display text when you move mouse over sub report content.

There is no Content under that "Tool Tip Text" formula
Hi,

Do I have to write some suppressing code under "Tool Tip Text" formula (x+1) for sub report?
No, it's a display text and if we write something under X+2, that content will be displayed or the content before the X+2 will be displayed.
Can you share the report with some sample data?
Hi,
I don't see the tooltip which is displayed in your screenshot (i.e. purchRptAttachedSuppliers.rpt), instead it displays "Subreport:purchRptAttachedSuppliers.rpt", which is the default display string for identifying the object type and name of the object.
I don't think String "Subreport" can be removed, though we can change the remaining content under Format Subreport --> Subreport --> Subreport Name. You can give a different name, but that cannot be blank.

Hope this helps.
You can enter a single space in the tooltip.
That would result in a blank tooltip.
Actually when report is viewed on report viewer, that time the tool tip is visible.
Well, as Ido Millet suggested, you can remove the object name part by entering a space, but the Subreport Object type part will still be displayed.
No, it won't.
Hi Ido,
This is for a sub report object.
It does display the "Subreport:" part for me as in attached screenshot.
Do you think we can remove that?

It doesn't behave that way for me.
For me, in Crystal XI R2 as well as Crystal 2016, a single space in the tooltip property of a subreport results in a blank tooltip.
I have Crystal 2013 version, same as author.
Are you viewing the report from Crystal Designer? Or is it a different one?
From both Crystal Designer as well as from my DataLink Viewer, I get a blank tooltip as shown below:

I am using Crystal report  2013 Developer
I went thru the KB's for Crystal Reports 2013. Nothing found related to tooltip for Crystal Reports.
Not sure whether it is a bug.

In CR2008 I don't see it at all until I hover over the subreport.  As with Ido, when I add just a space to the tool tip I get a small empty box with no text.

There are differences in the viewer and the developer.  Which viewer are you using?  DO you have CR Server or BO Enterprise or is this the viewing application SAP provided or an application you wrote?

Hi mlmcc,
It seems the author is using Crystal Reports 2013 developer/designer itself to view the report output.
I do have the same version and I could see that the tooltip is still getting displayed as "Subreport:" with report name part not being displayed.
Ido confirmed he isn't seeing the tooltip in XI R2 and 2016 version.
May be a bug in 2013 version?
I have CR2013 with a viewing application in a VM.  I will try it there later.

I tried both CR 2013 and CR2016 in the designer, our viewing application and launch pad.

In both designers it worked as Ido stated a small blank box when I hovered over the subreport.
In the viewing application and Launchpad all I saw was an indicator I could drill into the subreport.  No text or small box.

What specific version of CR2013 do you have?
Open Crystal.
