    Charles is  your accusnap turned on and  if so are all the settings applied  like mine  see below

     if  items 3 &  4 is  off  then quick info doesnt  run for me also the  quick flyout  info for level name and type  doesnt work either when hover over element

    sorry to say could be corrupt upf  user pref file...

    find your .upf file rename it  .oldupf

    then restart mstn  it will make  new  upf file and  try again to use the  quick info  if it  works then it was your upf and you'll need to re set up things  up the way you like from the  workspace prefs once youve  redone your user prefs the way you like  make a backup copy  some where else... and  you can re use it .. then delete the  .oldupf...

     not ideal solution as you dont know what caused the corruption  but gets you back to running  normal  mode really  quick.. if  keeps happening after a while then you need to seek  real support with log files etc...

  • Hello Charles,
    I believe that for some reason all the attributes what you want to see from the quick info are unselected. I was able to reproduce what you see by unselecting the attributes from the dialog:

    Please follow this wiki article how to modify the Quick Info dialog: communities.bentley.com/.../customize-quick-info-dialog

    I hope this helps.

  • I loved this tool in V8i. But I cannot get it to work in CE.......  

    Just checked the Button assignments and ALT+RESET isn't listed.  I also tried coping the V8i keying 'mdl keyin elementinfo element quickinfo fromcursor' to CE but that doesn't work either.

    So is there a CE version of this tool? According to the CE help it should be the same as V8i.....
