      Default 2009: Cursor hover preview - how do I get it back?

      C'mon, v2009 MR1 - why did you turn off the little "preview" message that used to appear when the user hovers the cursor over a strange new icon?

      How do I get it back? It helps me memorize them.

      Ha! Half the problem with the Search function is knowing the right keywords.
      I've heard this common and useful software functionality referred to as hover, preview, rollover, and now a new one "tooltips". Thanks VPT.

      Search for "tooltips" turned up that Wes made a thread about the same problem when he upgraded to 4.2:

      No effects. Still no workings, even with only PC-DMIS open.

      Thanks for using the search function!!!



      I am heartened to see the crack Hexagoons fixed this known problem in the newer versions. (Oh yeah, I reported it. More than once even.)

      If you have an autofeature window open, then tool tips work. If you do not have an autofeature window open they do not work.

      I have no idea why, and apparently not only do the Hexagoons not know why, they can't fix it either.

      Well, at least it's not a dangerous bug.
