Question

Here is a another list that has quite a few WF4 updates.

(Originally from a helpful PTC tech rep, then edited.)

Would still be good if Pro/E had pop-up descriptions for the icons, as
well as for the little boxes next to them.

Regards,

Terry

    I don't know how your config win is set up but for me whenever I hover over an icon the explanation is shown down in the very bottom left in the information window...

    The technique of focusing attention one place while something important
    is happening another is called misdirection.
    In stage magic it is considered a good thing.
    In interface design it is considered a bad thing.

    A few less magicians and a few more UI developers at PTC would be nice.
    Maybe it's all better in WF4.

    On a similar note - hovering the pointer over a section name in the view
    manager window -long enough- will show the name of the related datum
    feature as a tool tip. In this case the misdirection is temporal rather
    than spatial, but it comes to the same result.
