Mac - mouseover hints not displaying. Windows works but not mac

I'm on Lightroom CC.  The mouse over hints or tooltips do not display.  I.e.  when in the library and looking at the icons to the bottom right of an image.

When I install Lightroom on a Windows 10 machine I can see the hints/tooltips. 

Does anyone know what I'm missing?

Thanks in advance.

    Grid View tab, in the Options section there is a checkbox for "Show image info tooltips"
