It's a well-known issue. Or rather, feature. The macros won't get expanded in the letter tooltip.

P.S. The game uses the last line of the letter as a source for "extended" tooltip.

Hi,
I asked the same question recently, check viewtopic.php?t=6479

[FeMaster]

so theres no solution?

so theres no solution?

For example, edit the quest file, the letter text, so the last line of it didn't contain any macro.

To summarise, the core issue being solved by disabling macros in letter tooltips is that some macros require location/building data. When these macros are used, entire locations are being loaded just as user mouses around their inventory. This was causing massive inventory stutters in some environments.

Possibly a better approach to this in future would be to only ignore the heavy macros which require location loading and allow all others. This will at least allow name/rank/pronoun/etc. lookups to work in tooltips (the most common cases).
