Hi,
I actually just found the problem. It seems the coordinate widget "blocked" the pop-ups when it was set to a different coordinate system then WGS84. I have no idea why yet, but hope to get that sorted to, for now I just have it showing coordinates in WGS84. I originally wanted it to be in Swereff99TM (3006; the local national system), but then it will not let the widget be set to "move mouse to get coordinates" but only to "click map for coordinates" effectively disabling the pop-us.
