OBJPROP_TOOLTIP not working in visual strategy tester
Hi
It’s probably the same reason why OnChartEvent is not working on tester objects and events on tester are managed differently. Why do you need to use different names though? Tooltip is just for display so I wouldn’t use this for object management.
Have a nice day👍📊

That's sad - wasn't aware that the OnChartEvent for objects is not working properly, too.
I created an indicator that also draws visual confirmations on the chart. In real operation, I can just name these objects e.g. "IndAlert_2024.11.07 07:53:00" to make sure the name is unique, while using OBJPROP_TOOLTIP for the human-readable alert description.
In the strategy tester, I now need to (ab)use OBJPROP_NAME for the human-readable description, which is also not ideal because it is limited to only 63 characters.

OBJPROP_TOOLTIP is not working in visual strategy tester. Instead, the name is always used which is why I need to use different object names in the tester than I use in real operation.
