I cannot rid myself of the descriptions fron the non-greenview unlessI hack the code, not what I want to do. It is cosmetic,but it alsomakes it unusable for us, since the non-green view is our primary monitoring page. Having to continually scroll the screen for long descriptions is a big annoyance.
I run dual hobbit servers 4.2 is the primary with alerting, 4.3 as the secondary without alerting. The version I am referring to is 4.3. The problem does NOT exist in 4.2.
You helped me to some degree by just letting me know it isn't fixed in the latest snapshot, so no need to recheck by installing my nth version of the snapshot just to see if it is.
Just FYI, adding "--tooltips=never" to BBGENOPTS doesn't correct the issue either. I think that a code change would be necessary to have that option affect the DESCR tags in the same way that it is supposed to work on COMMENT tags.
When running bbgen without any --tooltip option at all, tooltips are showing the contents of the DESCR tag when I mouse over a hostname with a DESCR tag on any page. Not all of my hosts have DESCR tags or COMMENT tags, but in the cases where both are present, the contents of the COMMENT tag are what is displayed.
