EVE Information Portal

Transaction effects are irritating. All these fading, sliding etc. just NOT NEEDED. Please just ke all tooltips instant, would be much better. Shadow is also not needed much.

Today's patch notes:
Added a couple of new options in the settings menu for controlling the tooltip display delay and the bracket list display delay

Fixed an issue where tooltips would break after zooming in and out on the starmap
Tooltips for bookmarks in the People and Places window are now properly triggered
Fixed the position of the tooltip for the insurance type in the ship information window
Fixed an issue that prevented the module tooltip for Energized Armor Layering Membrane from being displayed
Attribute tooltips in the fitting window are now correctly refreshed after changing ships

The icon in the overview does not prevent you from ctrl-clicking to target or opening the context menu on the overview entry anymore
Bracket labels no longer briefly show up in an incorrect position before snapping into place when displayed

Great work. Needs a wiki page listing what is controlled by which slider.

Neocom tool tip sticking( needs to fade out) on when i drag my mouse over icon and out side the client window would be a great fix.

Tooltip display is working beautifully for me, Tyvm

Fantastic work, thank you very much

I still cannot point/target object is space (if there is many objects) - have to deal with popping window - previous solution was working perfectly - can you bring it back?
Delay sliders are good but they did not kill the root problem for me.

I went to the grocery this morning to pick up some healthy food.
Having arrived there I first picked up a few tomatoes from a crate that showed they where 5 isk a piece.
Suddenly out of nowhere a strange scruffy looking guy in a brown uniform appeared next to me and whispered in my ear while pointing with one hand at the tomatoes in my hand and the other at the sign above the crate with tomatoes, "that is a tomato, they cost 5 isk a piece."

Startled I glared at the slightly sinister looking dude and quickly walked away from him.
Then I got to the crate with ripe pears, you know the ones that so deliciously drip all over the place when you take a bite out of them? They looked great and the sign above the crate told me they would cost me only 14 isk per pear.
I picked up a few and suddenly there was that guy again. Pointing at the pears in my hand, the crate and at the sign he told me with a creepy voice, "those are pears, they cost 14 isk a piece."

I took a good look at him. His once brown uniform had seen better days. Left on his chest was a worn out logo. Something with a 'C' and 'P' or similar, couldn't make it quite out and to be honest I wasn't that much interested. I just wanted to get my food in peace and go home.

"Why are you doing this? I asked him."
"Why are you telling me things that I already know and can see with my own eyes?"

He looked over his shoulder as if he was afraid of something then whispered, "I got paid to do this."

"What", I said shocked, "you get paid to tell people redundant stuff?"

"No, got paid," he replied his voice showing a sign of grief and what, what was that? A tear in his eye?
"Company that did went up in dust and since then it's a world of darkness for me. Where good people though, a bit stubborn at times and sometimes straight out loco you know?"

I haven't got a clue but I just nodded, as long as he wasn't telling me what I already knew I'm happy.

"So ok," I said. "Sorry to hear your company went bust. But why are you still doing this?"

"I don't know, he said and looked down in remorse, "shoes."

"What?"

He pointed with both his hands down at my feet and said it again, "shoes".
"You are wearing shoes, they are polished and black."

He looked me in the face and grabbed me firmly by my shoulder.

It was as if a dam had bursted. Franticly he started to drag me around the store while pointing at everything in my sight and told me what it was and what it cost.

We where at the isle with banana's and coconuts when I shrugged him off but that didn't stop him. Over and over again he told me that these where banana's and that coconuts.

Annoyed I asked him if he had an off switch.

"Oh no," he cried out loud, "you said the 'O' word. The 'O' word, not the 'O' word!"
And before my eyes he started to shrink while simultaneously fading away in a cloud of smoke.

Just before he completely went up in smoke I heard his faint voice with a spooky echo, "I'll be back, I'll be baaaa…"

I dropped everything that I had in my hands, made a run for the grocery door, avoided a near collision with a rather large lady on the parking lot and jumped in my car.
With a speed that would certainly give me a dozen speeding tickets I arrived home. Slammed the garage door down, locked all doors and windows and closed all curtains before I, with pumping hearth, slid down behind my desk in my favorite chair.

After a while I calmed down and woke my Mac up from sleep an did some of my administration. Then I decided to take a break and boot up EVE, a game I've been playing since 2008.
I logged in on my character and felt a presence in the room. I looked over my shoulder and there was that guy from the grocery store again. Grinning, whispering.

"Told you so," he said.

Have you added an option where we can shut the ******* off!

I'm downloading my patch now, so apologies if this has been added.

Edit : No It Hasn't been added!

The one tooltip that provides value to me is the wallet one. It actually shows me something I may not already know; my current balance. I now have to make a choice to give up that value in return for not being bugged by dozens of redundant little boxes.

This is not progress.

Has anyone figured out what was wrong with the previous version of tooltips?
