Tooltip location

Post by glusberg »

I wasn't paying attention (although I did notice on occasion) but since we got the ability to increase the size of the tooltip I am very aware of it. On my screen, any and all tooltips are displayed about 3 inches below where the mouse pointer. My screen is 3840x2160 at 125%. Is there a setting I can change so it displays closer to the pointer?

3 inches!! :shock: Here it is less than half an inch. Note that XY does not do anything here. The placement is done by the system. (I don't know if there is some setting for this anywhere.)

Found the culprit! CursorFX, from Stardock. The last remanent of the software I used all the time on previous versions of Windows... It only expresses in Xyplorer and only the newish versions. Sorry I did not track when it started happening.
