Hi Adam
Make sure you have the layer selected in the table of contents and hover over
the feature for several seconds (e.g. 2 or 3). When I say hover, I mean do not
move the pointer. Make sure that there is a check mark by "Show Map Tips" in
the "View" top menu.
You might want to try changing the tool, and click on the map window or pan the
window and try hovering again. Also you may want to restart QGIS and start from
scratch setting up the Display tab of the Layer Properties.
I am using the same QGIS version but it is built with an older Qt, etc. and it
works for me, I just have to change the text or background color to make it
legible.

Subject: [Qgis-user] Map tips not showing
Message-ID: <[email protected]>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII
Hi all,
I'm new to QGIS and I followed some instructions for importing
geotagged images and displaying them on the map.
Everything seems to work fine, except I don't see any popups when
hovering over the points.
I have enabled the "Show map tips" option but it makes no difference.
I think with this option enabled, I should get popups for other items
too (not just the geotagged image points) however I have never seen a
single map popup in the whole time I've been using QGIS. If I add HTML
to other features I don't get any popups either.
I checked the manual[1] but can't seem to see anything I have missed.
I originally got a few errors at startup about missing packages, but I
installed those and I no longer get any errors at startup, but the map
tips still won't appear.
I'm running 3.30.0 with Qt 5.15.8, Python 3.10.10, and GDAL 3.6.3 under
Arch Linux.
Are there additional steps required beyond "Show map tips" in order to
get map tips showing?
Many thanks,
Adam.
