Hi,

I can't reproduce this issue with NVDA 2019.1.1 : image

I have tested it in chrome browser (70.0.3538.67).

If you want to avoid this behavior, delete one of the two lines 717 or 718:

            gridCells += ' title="' + longdate + '"';
            gridCells += ' aria-label="' + longdate + '"';

Take a look here: https://www.deque.com/blog/text-links-practices-screen-readers/, here: https://github.com/nvaccess/nvda/issues/7841 and here: http://pauljadam.com/demos/title-aria-label.html

If you choose to remove the title attribute, there will be no more tooltip when you move the mouse.
