Block type tool tip
I see the ID and Type in the title tooltip for blocks on both version 10 and 11.
Which version are you running?

We are running version 9.9. But it's the same on the demo site (http://alloy.episerverdemo.com/). That must run a newer version, or? I want to easily see what type of blocks there are in a content area without having to preview or open them.

Ah... I see the tooltip with ID and type when hovering in the block assets pane but not in a content area where it's only the name that pops up for me as well.
I would consider this a bug.

I Have the same Issue, I tried several things to get it diplayed in a content area, but no result. Did anyone find a solution for it?

I do not think anyone has reported it as a bug.
I will ask the Epi staff about it

This should do the trick for you in the meanwhile.

Hi Rajaa,
You can fork the repo and modify the code below. The viewmodel does have the ID property, so this is the only file you will need to modify.

No need to fork. You could simply use the Inspectable attribute:
[Inspectable]
public int ContentId => this.ContentLink.ID;
and it will display the ID

Hi,
Episerver uses tool tips to display short information about page name, ID number and page template type in the left tree structure. But the tool tip used on blocks only display the block's name, which is displayed anyway. I should prefer Epi to display the block type in the tool tip instead. Can we do that ourselves or do we have to request it from you to change it?
