Please be careful when editing .ini that you don't change something else that you might need.

New Hover Tip default behavior:

- View menu > select "Show Hover Tips" option (the default setting) now shows Hover Tips only for objects with which one can interact.

- View menu > deselect "Show Hover Tips" option works as before; no Hover Tips will be shown

- To view Hover Tips for all objects (the old default behavior), add the line "ShowAllObjectHoverTip TRUE" to the settings.ini file, found in the following locations:

- Windows: Documents and Settings\USERNAME\Application Data\SecondLife\user_settings

- Mac OS X: Users/USERNAME/Library/Application Support/SecondLife/user_settings

- To view Hover Tips only for Land, add the line "ShowLandHoverTip TRUE" to the settings.ini file instead.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Be sure to use a TAB character between the option name and the "TRUE" setting. Then, after editing the file, restart SecondLife to see the Hover Tips as desired.***
