[softwarelist] Re: Ovation Pro Windows - Tooltips

I do agree with Frank Watkinson that Tooltips would be a positive addition 
to OvPro Windows. It is easier to get direct information about what a tool 
does when pointing to it.

Gilding the lily can help.

While trying the evening before last, to show a mixed audience (RISC OS
and Windows) the common and different features of OPro on the two
platforms, I commented on the torturous(sp.-deliberate) need to do a
"Shift-F1" and then point with the Interrogative pointer and click on a
button on the button bar, to remind oneself that one had forgotten what
was its particular purpose, and then have to repeat the same sequence on
another button to see if that was the button that one wanted.

Inevitably, one of our Windows members asked "Where are the Tooltips?".
I had to admit that I had not seen any reference to Tooltips.

Could it be a subject for an Applet?

Anyone?
