Touch Screen Computers
If you are using a touch screen computer, but are utilizing the mouse, you may need to disable touch events to gain the full use out of the platform. Even if your computer is docked it will still be read as a touch screen computer. Some information will display when you "hover" over certain items or menus. If you are using a touch screen your mouse will not be read as a typical mouse and the information will not display. Your clicks may also count as a click and a touch in some instances. To disable touch events follow these instructions:
Open a new tab in Chrome and go to Chrome://Flags
Search for "Touch" in the search box
Disable Touch UI
