Water CIP Tooltips

SSMIC3038 — Tue, 05 Apr 2011 15:05:06 GMT

Maybe a bit trivial, but playing with the Water CIP template and the icons don't show tool tips when I hover over them.
This toolset looks great but without documentation, or at the least - tool tips, it's pretty hard to get up to speed on how to use, at very least users will need a document with the toolbar and icons detailed. I noticed on the video that tool tips were working there.

Anyway to get tooltips working for this (I have tooltips working under the default toolbar settings).

I will take a look and see if I can add them if they are not there.

Thanks Mike.
Some of the functionality youve been developing looks great, were in the process of upgrading a 10 year old (ArcGIS 8.0 beta) enterprise GIS and we have some big plans for these new tools!!

Hi Mike,
I'm currently testing this CIP template, loves it, thank you. Question: where or how can I change the buffer setting from your default of 15 to 25 when I select some wMains to create a cip project.

Do you mean the buffer of the mains that is created with you save the project, the convex hull around all the features? If so, at the moment it is hard coded. I can expose that value in the next release if you would like.
