[mapguide-users] Tooltip accuracy / Tolerance

[Jackie Ng]

In 2.5 and older releases, there was a disparity between queries for a point
that's selected (it went through getselectedfeatures.aspx/php/jsp) and
tooltip queries for the same point (which goes through the QUERYMAPFEATURES
operation in the mapagent), which may present cases where clicking on a
point gives you one thing, but a tooltip over the same place could give
something else.

For the 2.6 release onwards, all of these queries go through the same
channel (the QUERYMAPFEATURES operation in the mapagent) which means you
should have consistency in your mouse-driven viewer queries, whether you
clicked on a feature or your mouse pointer was over it.

Also with 2.6, we introduced a new Web Layout schema that allows you to
customize among other things, the point selection tolerance (ie. That
previously hard-coded 2px bufferPx value)

Basically, the 2.6 release (or the 3.0 preview) may resolve your issue.
