    It would be useful for newbies who are too ignorant to read a tutorial, but when you know what everything is and how to work everything, it just gets annoying. I don't want textboxes covering up things just when I put my mouse over something.

    One word, Revfan: Options. :p

    I'd really like to see that suggestion implemented, BH4. I think it would even help us older users speed up our work, because of the fact that we would just be able to hover over combos to find out information about them, rather than having to edit them.

    It'd also be nice to be able to hover over combos that are already placed on the screen to see what number they are (useful to check for when you have two combos that LOOK the same, but act differently).

    ... ... ... Holy Crap. SHADOWTIGER. Thanks. (Heh. XD )

    Great, I forgot what I was going to say. ...


    Oh yeah. Perhaps you could have three levels of Rollover help availability? One is simply Off, where none appears at all. (Like how it currently is. ) Another is on at all times, where you wait like, one and a half seconds with the mouse not moving at all, then it pops up, ... ... and another setting where it only pops up if you're holding in shift or something as you hover your mouse over it. Sounds good, Revfan?

    Lol, sorry. I refer to you as BH4 here because that's your user name. :p

    Anywho, what I'd REALLY like to see done with this suggestion, besides (or maybe instead of) the whole tooltip thing, is to have a sort of "status box" added to the bottom of the screen, which explains what something is whenever you have your mouse over it. Of course, I wouldn't expect to see this happen until ZQuest actually went full windows-like (if it ever does). You know what I mean?
