Bill,
Perhaps if you had truely read the question, that's what we don't get. It does not work. Hence the order question between "Ambient" and "edit feature settings" access to same settings.
r.e. -Chakri Gavini's comments on November 8, 04
Globally turning off option for tool tips is available through "Ambient Settings" tab of drawing settings.
We got that;YES "globally" it works (as previously stated).
Meaning for ALL C3D objects in that drawing, if it's NO, no display's, period.
1. When you create a new dwg (or perhaps your template) right click on the dwg name in settings tree and right click to go "Edit Drawing Settings" and in that dialog click on Ambient Settings Tab.
2. In Ambient Settings expand GENERAL node and one of the properties listed is "Show Tool Tips". Set this property value to NO.
3. In a dwg created with such settings will not show any tool tips until you set the value back to YES
OK, 1-3 basic and straight forward, per my orginal question.
Now #4;
4. For any reason if you want to turn ON/OFF tool tips to only certain object types - you can do so by editing corresponding feature settings. For example you want to see tool for corridor feature lines. Then in the settings tree right click on the corridor node and select "Edit Feature Settings". In this dialog expand GENERAL node and set the Show Tool Tips property value to YES.
#4 is the problem, We get it and that's how understood, yet this does NOT happen.
Yet if even say Ambient is Yes, then "edit Feature Settings for the C3D object to NO should turn off the object TT display,
yet it still displays, so we don't get it.
Or if Ambient is NO per #2, then "edit Feature Settings" can
be overwritten to Yes for specific C3D object.?? Tried that, &
NO in Ambient is taking the drawing and turning OFF TT for all the C3D objects. Any that were (are) YES do not display.
I (assumed) then Ambient is the parent control for the drawing. And the Settings for each C3D object under "edit feature settings" is where the "Overrides" and "Child Overrides come in.
Simply do not get the order (priority) here. If Ambient is NO, then "edit Feature Settings" for object to Yes is not overriding the object under general. Same other way, a YES for
Ambient, and specific NO's for objects under "edit Feature Settings" are not turning the displays off,
so that's the expanded question in detail.
Not being rude, if applying this simple setting is not working, or we're not using in order designed, how can I set ALL the other optional preferences, + control via "edit Feature Settings" being back to the order of presence question.
