Procedure to remove unnecessary tooltip on RichTextEditor
SA-10852
Summary
When the focus is on Advanced RichTextEditor user gets a tool-tip that says “ This is a rich text editor control”. This issue occurs only on Pega 7.1.8 and not on Pega 7.1.7.
User requires to know a method to remove this.
Error Messages
Not Applicable.
Steps to Reproduce
Open/check the out-of-thebox (OOTB) Advanced RichTextEditor from UI Gallery and hover the mouse.
Root Cause
The HTML code for RTE is generated by RUF ‘pzGenerateRichTextEditor’ which hardcodes the RTE ‘title’ . Title is used for showing the tool tip. Verified this by changing the “title” of RTE in Developer tool. In Pega 7.1.7 the title is not added in the generated HTML code. Developers have used title attribute on RTE mainly for screen reader (JAWS) that is. accessibility.
And PRPC shows tooltip for title attribute.
Resolution
This issue is resolved through the following local-change:
1.Create a field value for pyCaption and title "This is a rich text editor control."
2.Have the translated value as " " (HTML non-breaking space character).
3.Re-save the section containing the RTE. At runtime, user will not see the tooltip anymore.
