Post subject: How to make text hover over icon Add to elertz Archived from groups: microsoft>public>visio (more info?)
I've got a drawing in Visio where I've added an printer icon (actually a
shape or stencil). I've made it a link now and pointed it to the website
with the driver. I also want to be able to have it where when I hover over
the item with a mouse, a text box comes up and displays the printer's IP
address. This needs to be possible when saving the drawing as a web page.

try this
al
I know many people have asked this question, and it has been partially
answered previously. Here is a more complete explanation.
Summary:
You can add the User.visEquivTitle cell to your shape and provide a string
that will display as a tooltip in the web output. The shape must also have
at least one custom property for the tooltip to be visible.
Steps:
1) Select the shape in your drawing that you want to add a web tooltip for
2) Go to Window > Show Shapesheet
3) Go to Insert > Section, check User-defined cells and click OK
4) In the newly created section, click on the row name User.Row_1 to select
the title of the row
5) Type visEquivTitle and press Enter - you should now see
User.visEquivTitle for the row
6) In the Value cell of that row, enter the text you want to display
surrounded by quotes (e.g. "Hello World")
7) If you instead want to display the same tooltip as the Shape ScreenTip
enter =Comment (no quotes)
Go to Insert > Section, check Custom properties and click OK
9) You can fill in the custom property Label and Value if you want this
information to be visible
10) If you don't want the custom property to be visible, enter TRUE in the
Invisible cell
11) Close the Shapesheet window and repeat for any other shape you like
12) Choose File > Save as Web Page to create the HTML output
As you can see this is a bit involved. The capability was designed more as
a developer feature than an end user feature. I recommend tying the Shape
ScreenTip to the User cell so that you see the same tooltip in both Visio
and the web output. It should also be possible to use Macro Recorder to
automate these steps. If your shape has a custom property but does not have
the User.visEquivTitle cell, Visio will display the shape's text in a
tooltip instead.

Try using the Comment cell in the Miscellaneous section. You could define
the IP Address as a custom property and then the content of the comment cell
could reflect the content of the custom property contaiing the IP address.
YOu can get fancy by making the content of the Comment cell a formula that
references several custom properties.
What Al refers to in his post is using the hover feature of a webpage. What
I am referring to is the mouse over featur eof a Visio page.

When creating the value in the comment cell, you can insert several
references to various custom properties.
