Tooltip Not Removed from Field After Deletion in Configuration

[Sohan_Reddy_Anugu]

Hi Everyone,

I would like to share an issue I observed while working with tooltips in Pega Constellation.

Initially, a tooltip was configured for a field. At a later point, the tooltip configuration was removed from the field. However, despite removing it from the configuration, the tooltip continued to be displayed in the UI.

Multiple checks were performed to ensure that the tooltip was no longer referenced in the field or view configuration, but the behavior remained unchanged.

The tooltip was only removed from the UI after the associated tooltip rule was permanently deleted.

Hi Sohan,

Thanks for sharing this, I observed the same behavior.

From what I understand, removing the Additional Information (tooltip) from the field configuration in App Studio does not clear the reference on the underlying property rule. Because of this, the tooltip continues to appear in the UI.

This seems like inconsistent behavior and could potentially be a product limitation or bug, as the reference is not fully cleared from the property.

A cleaner workaround (without deleting the tooltip rule) is:

1. Open Dev Studio

2. Navigate to the Property rule associated with the field

3. Remove the Additional Information reference

4. Save the rule

After this, the tooltip is removed from the UI as expected.
