------- Additional comments from [email protected] Thu Nov 5 22:29:27 +0000 2009 ------- Currently, the balloon help (whether OO.o/StarOffice is configured for only tips or extended tips) gets in the way of my project. I can't see through the balloon text. Make an information bar at the bottom of the screen where the tips will be sent instead of right next to the mouse where I particularly want to be looking at. I don't think the concern is valid that the user's eyes will need to travel too far across the screen to read the help tips. The information bar will probably need to extend across the entire window to allow maximum space to provide useful feedback to the user--otherwise it really would not be useful. This information bar could also be where you show additional future information other than simply the help tips. An example might be "right-click object to show properties, double left-click object to type text." You would use this information bar to provide useful feedback. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
