Tool tip always defaulted to off. Unable to save Tooltip as 'on' for tokens

Title. I'd like to display useful info by using it. My only work around is by using token mod to re enable the tool tip every time I place a new token.

I have another work-around for you! I've been using it for a while since I discovered it. Open the Journal entry Click the Edit button Click the Edit Token Properties button Click the Tooltip Show checkbox ON Click the Save Settings button Click the Save Changes button Now when you drag a token from that Journal entry, the Tooltip will show as you want. Sadly, if you use the Update Default Token button it will reset the Tooltip Show checkbox again, and you'll have to fix it as above.

Hi Tristan P.,  This is a known bug with the token version of token settings.  The workaround is to use the Character version of token settings.  To do that please open the associated Character.  Click Edit Click Edit Token Properties Set up the token.  Save Settings Save Changes Drag the Character to the table normally.  So that the Devs can track this issue (see how many folks it is impacting) please file a bug report via the Help Center .  To save yourself back and forth with the Help Center staff please reference this forum post, tell them to ask me about it if necessary. :) Edit: Andrew partially ninja'd me. :D Note about Andrew's fix, due to another issue regarding tokens you will have to fully set up the token via the Character token setting as that token's settings are different from the token's token settings. 
Thank you both for the replies! That work around is a lot easier to use than spamming token mod! I'll leave an official bug report through the help center as well.
