airpix Posted June 27, 2005 Report Share Posted June 27, 2005 Used to be when I placed my cursor over a jpeg file the image / file size, etc would be shown. It won't do that anymore and now I have to right click the image and go to properties to get that info. Any ideas why this information no longer shows up?Thanks, Airpix Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scarecrow Man Posted June 27, 2005 Report Share Posted June 27, 2005 It's called a tooltip. Only when a website programs a tooltip into thier code will you see this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mark2 Posted June 27, 2005 Report Share Posted June 27, 2005 to the top of the same list .check "display file size information in folder tips"if it doesn't work uncheck both, see if it then works, sometimes windows either forgets the settings or seems to read them wrong.

trackrat Posted June 27, 2005 Report Share Posted June 27, 2005 If you have tried doing all that Mark suggested and had no luck have you tried going back to before it started happening in the system restore?. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
