can't disable CTRL+hover HoverBox

Post by woofy31 »

So apparently there's a default hoverbox functionality when holding the CTRL key pressed and hovering filenames and icons, and it's always enabled - there seems to be no option to disable this, even if I disable the HoverBox functionality in settings. The CTRL + hover always shows the hoverbox for everything no matter what I disable in the settings, and it is really annoying when trying to select multiple files/folders with CTRL.

Does anyone have any idea if it's possible to disable this always-on default CTRL hoverbox functionality? Is there a hidden setting that can be written in the ini file? It's really bugging me whenever I want to select multiple things :(

I answered with a double punch:

Code: Select all

    * Configuration | Information | File Info Tips & Hover Box: Now inverting 
      show/hide via holding CTRL is bound to a tweak (later it will be a UI 
      setting), factory default and upgrades = OFF:
        InfoTipInvertOnCTRL=1
    * Configuration | Information | File Info Tips & Hover Box: Now inverting 
      show/hide via holding CTRL will not overwrite the general settings "Show 
      file info tips" and "Show Hover Box".
