Hi Mike,
You got two sets of buttons (regular and radio) on Tab 2???
I'm running r4333 and don't see two sets.
The buttons on tab 2 are (and have been for quite a long time):
Push button labelled "CQ" tool tip "Generate a CQ message",
push button labelled "Grid" tool tip "Generate a message for replying to
a CQ",
push button labelled "dB" tool tip "Generate message with report",
push button labelled "R+dB" tool tip "Generate message with R+ report,
push button labelled "RRR" tool tip "Generate message with RRR",
push button labelled "73" tool tip "Generate message with 73",
radio button labelled "Gen msg" tool tip "Send this (standard) generated
message",
radio button labelled "Free msg" tool tip "Send the free-text message
(max 13 characters)".
if you are not seeing that then your build id badly broken!
I'd recommend very similar wording as the Tab 1 buttons but perhaps
add the message type.
e.g. "Switch to CQ message NOW"
Maintaining some consistency that way.
So are you suggesting that instead of "Generate a CQ message" for the
"CQ" button. IMHO that is still ambiguous because the NOW only applies
in transmit mode. Your text might be taken to mean switch to transmit
immediately which is not the case.

Well the request could be fulfilled by JTMacros although I doubt
Laurie would consider it of high priority.
Here is a link to the OP as you have only posted my reply to the OP
and have lost the context.

Good to know about tab 2....I don't use tab 2. I was confused with
"radio buttons" since tab 2 doesn't have any...just "buttons".
Err, it does on my screen. There is a group of two radio buttons to
select standard generated or user defined free text message.
But should the hover text then say "NOW" like tab 1 says for the
buttons to maintain consistency? It's not intuitive.
All the buttons in the messages window on Tab 2 have immediate effect
in transmit mode. It may be sensible to make the tool tips explicitly
state that fact, although it is fairly obvious since the outgoing
message in the status bar is updated.
Any suggestions for wordings for each of the buttons?

Hi Mike,
that is correct for the "Tab 1" messages but not the "Tab 2" messages
which are the ones I suspect most operators use.
Laurie could choose to "click" the radio button if "Tab 1" were active
and JTMacros writes the free text field "Tx 5". Alternatively WSJT-X
could do that on any modification to the free text edit.
