For a long time I used the tips. They are comfortable and in new version of H14 they no longer exist. Why were they removed?

I have this problem too. It worked, as you say, but seems to come and go - if you resize the window the lists appear occasionally, but tooltips are no longer visible for a while now.

you are a houdini master when you know all the commands on the fly:-)

I downloaded the last Daily and this has not yet been fixed.

It's even more frustrating when you are new and learning the software by following a course that is explaining things about the quick help and you aren't able to follow :x :evil: ops:

It's been working in Houdini 15 for a while now; have you tried the latest daily build? If that's still not working, file a bug with support.
I'm o.d.d.

I wasn't sure if i should download daily builds or wait for production build. Still new in the world of Houdini. Getting the latest build. Thanks.

Oops, I meant to say production, but it's been in H15 for a while now. I can't remember which build exactly, but I'm seeing Python, vex, expression tips now.

Or are you talking about parameter tool tips? I know some times, under certain conditions (which I've never been able to reproduce), the descriptions will go away, and it'll only display the parm name.
I'm o.d.d.
