Look here for how to fix the no tooltips after defeat bug!

The problem why the tooltips disappear is caused by this line of code in CustomDefeatDialogBJ, which disables the User UI:

Add this action right after a Game - Defeat player X action to re-enable the User UI:
Custom script: call EnableUserUI(true)

:ggani: OMG, does that really work!? Have you tested it already and everything?! That's awesome! I'd give you a million bagillion...well... a lot of points if I could! Great job finding that out! ^_^ :D

Someone must sticky this. :gsmile:

This really will be handy, Phil_123. Have you tried it out to see that it will work?

And no, it needn't be stickied :Heh:, but it will probably get moved to the Trigger Repository if it turns out to have been proven to work.

I think Doca Cola or somebody else told me that on irc a while ago, I even made this function however it is good that you posted it

Why can't you just use the Enable UI event in GUI?

Where is that event? Or did you mean action? If so, where is that action? I can't find it in the GUI ;)

EDIT: Nevermind, I did search for text "UI" and "interface" and it didn't come up under Event nor Actions. So I'll assume that's why not to do that... because you can't. (standard WE)

Were you even paying attention?


There's an action in the GUI called "Custom Script:" where you can type in a line of JASS in the middle of a regular trigger. Just use that, and type "call EnableUserUI(true)" after every Defeat Player action you use and it should work, according to Phil. Hope I was able to clear that up for you. = )

There was no need to clear anything up, I was just responding to using a "GUI" function, as opposed to "Custom Script" (JASS). And there is no GUI action to do that.

It must be a UMSWE or WEU function then. But it works.

[edit] I've stickied this because I think that loads of people will find it helpful.

Why hasn't this been stickied? I thought you said you were gonna sticky it, 35263526. What happened? :( Isn't this...helpful?...

I wasn't sure how helpful it would be. If enough people want, I'll sticky it.

Hmm...is there something that's already stickied that you could add this to? That would save space and would save you the trouble of stickying another post, right? :D
Of course, only the original, or more specifically, the most necessary posts would be added, if any.

Excuse me but the credits DO NOT GO TO THE TOPIC MAKER.

Someone else posted this, and I already has it copied down in one of my little notepad documents. Please, stop.

I've added it to the FAQs. Case CLOSED
