I get rid of them by not requiring the field in the settings, and then I place conditional formatting on my submit button that makes it disabled if all required fields are not filled out. This may or may not work for some, but it's my preference instead of the annoying tooltips that overlay my labels half the time.

Hmmm - but that way I would still have a tooltip, albeit user friendly. Is there any way to get rid of them altogether from the browser-enabled form?

(Another example would be the "cannot be blank" tooltip that appears in addition to the red asterisk on a required field)...

Thanks

Hi,

For Boolean fields, the default validation is displayed as you said. If you want the user friendly tool tip, add a validation to the radio button as if the radio button field is blank then add your message here. So that the user can understand the validation easily.

How do I remove the tooltips from required fields in browser enabled forms?

For instance, I have a browser-enabled form with pair of radio buttons for yes/no, and require the user to select one or the other. I have deliberately NOT set them to default to one or the other, as I want the user to make a conscious decision about which to select. When you hover over them, infopath presents an annoying "only true or false allowed" tooltip.

Is it possible to get rid of this? I can't figure it out.
