I know that the Tool Tips icon or button on the toolbar turns Tool Tips on and off, but I have two questions.

1. What are they?

2. Why don't I see anything when I turn them on?

Tool Tips

Hi Andre,

Tool Tips are roll-over notes on a space or object. You can think of them as hints or helpful tips that you can create for yourself the next time you go into the space. They are different than the Notes feature in Quantum4D. When a note is created it is visible at all times. You will see a note icon and the short name for the note on the space or object upon creating the note. Tool Tips might be there, but you'll have to hover over a chart or object to see them.

You can create tool tips by entering information into the notes section of the properties panel. Access the properties panel by right clicking a space in the tree or right clicking an object in the space or in the tree. Properties is the last option on the bottom of the pop-up menu.

Try entering info into the notes section of the properties panel and then turning on the tool tips and hovering over the object/space. You should see a little pop-up tool tip. Let us know if you still have trouble.
