This seems to work for the button bar in the query tool, but not for other buttons such as those on dialogues. Can you update to fix the problem consistently please?

Hello Dave,
We were looking into this request and we found at least one location where the Hover does not make sense when it is disabled (the stylized "i' in the lower left of dialogs, which has the alt-text "SQL help for this object type".)
Could this patch be pulled in, as the buttons for which this does not apply feel out of scope?
Thanks
George & Joao

This seems to work for the button bar in the query tool, but not for
other buttons such as those on dialogues. Can you update to fix the

I think that's debatable. When enabled, that's exactly what the button would do. I don't think it's any different from other buttons that are disabled because they don't apply in some circumstances. > Could this patch be pulled in, as the buttons for which this does not apply > feel out of scope? Even if we ignore my comment about about the SQL help button, my earlier comments still apply. Consistency is fundamental to user comprehension and learning of a UI - we should not have some disabled buttons that don't display their tooltips and others that do. -- Dave Page Blog: http://pgsnake.blogspot.com Twitter: @pgsnake EnterpriseDB UK: http://www.enterprisedb.com The Enterprise PostgreSQL Company
Hi!
Here's a new patch that applies to all the buttons.
Thanks,

I think that's debatable. When enabled, that's exactly what the button
would do. I don't think it's any different from other buttons that are

Even if we ignore my comment about about the SQL help button, my
earlier comments still apply. Consistency is fundamental to user
comprehension and learning of a UI - we should not have some disabled
buttons that don't display their tooltips and others that do.
