well, john, the discussion in here is not about showing or not tooltips, but using tooltips to show warnings. and it's not about experts being proud of mastering a difficult system, but being able to achieve their goal without the software getting in their way. long life to the tooltips... but, please, don't stuff everything in there! ciao a.l.e
