Hello all

I have often had trouble with one particular issue with Kindle Comic Converter no matter which version it was. More often than not, the tool tips that explain each option wouldn't show up, so if i hadn't used the app for a while i'd forget which settings did exactly what and what i wanted to use. This happened across multiple versions of KCC and OS X (currently on yosemite public beta)

So here's a quick simple fix for anyone having the same problem and can't figure out a solution.

Simply open terminal and enter:

Code:

defaults write com.kindlecomicconverter.KindleComicConverter NSInitialToolTipDelay -int 1000

What does this do? Well it changes the amount of time it takes for a tooltip to show up after hovering. In this particular case it only effects KCC and not your other apps. The default delay is 1 second (1000 milliseconds). So you're not really changing anything, but for some reason, if the tooltips get turned off, this should restore them. And since there's no documentation on the KCC website about what the tooltips say, this can really come in handy.
