Show Descriptions in UI setting does not work when unchecked

Condition:
Preference/UI settings/Show descriptions item is unchecked, SaveProject on Exit is also checked.
Expectation:
Descriptions of Test Cases will not automatcially show when mouse is pointed to it. Description can still be looked at manually when you click the description tab.
Actual:
Descriptions always automatically show with a blue page stay open for a while even mouse is away from the test case. Need to wait this page to disappear to continue activities on SoapUI. Exit SoapUI and re open it, the same problem come back. Checking descriptions manually works fine.
Impact:
Description of Test Cases is useful to include preconditions, test expectation, etc. However, description always automatically shows up with a blue page in the front, covering other portion of SoapUI not accessible. The waiting for description page to disappear slows down developement activity. It borthers people too.
  • Hello,

    'show descriptions content when available' will open description panel (if item contains description text).
    I believe you need to select option 'Disables all tooltips' which will remove them (all pop-ups with blue background).

    Hope this helps!

    Hi, Vladimir:

    Disabling All Tooltips works fine to stop the blue pop up description page. Thanks.
