Ignition 8.1.18: If I configure a tooltip on a Standard Tag (currently, “This is a tooltip!”), I am able to see the tooltip when hovering over a tag within the tag database: ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/f/2/f2979beb6203babc2188efd53373419aa2c9f890.png) However, if I configure a tooltip on a Data Type Instance (from UDT definition: “This is a UDT tooltip!”), I am unable to see the tooltip during hover: ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/8/e/8e3389dc35e2b97d6623f48404917880d309eb81.png) End goal is to display the tag description, as-defined from a parameter configured in the UDT. Unsure if this is a bug, or if I need to configure a setting somewhere in order to see tooltips on UDTs. Any suggestions? ---

Thanks for the report - this appears to be a bug and I’ve filed a ticket to track it.
