ANN: Pointer Tooltips Plugin

[Mark Schonewille]

Hi Dar,

You could just have asked for it. Well ok, you did, eventually. Here  
is the announcement of a cool plugin.


Pointer Tooltips Plugin 1.0 for Runtime Revolution

Economy-x-Talk is glad to announce a plug-in for Revolution, named  
Pointer Tooltips. which displays the names of objects, such as fields  
and buttons, in multi-line tooltips. Save the plugin in your plug-ins  
folder, choose RevAltTooltip* from the Plug-ins menu, and click the  
checkbox to turn it on.

The Pointer Tooltip plug-in shows the long names of objects, such as  
fields and buttons, in a multi-line tooltip, while the pointer tool  
is selected. Save the plug-in in your plug-ins folder, choose  
RevAltTooltip* from the Plug-ins menu, and click the checkbox to turn  
it on. When the tooltips get distracting, simply click the checkbox  
again to turn it off.

The Pointer Tooltip plug-in has been tested with Revolution 2.0.3,  
2.6.1 and 2.7.3. Earlier versions of Revolution are not supported. It  
works fine on Mac OS 9, Mac OS X, Windows 98 and Windows XP and can  
also be used with Media, although not as plug-in. If you experience  
problems while using this plug-in with Revolution 2.0.3 or later or  
with different operating systems, please contact us.

The Pointer Tooltip plug-in is freeware. Redistribution of this plug- 
in is not allowed. You can download the latest version from the  
Developers section of our homepage at http://economy-x-talk.com.  
Please, don't give this plug-in away but refer your friends to the  
website instead.

We are very grateful to everyone who helped with ideas and beta  
testing, particularly Björnke von Gierke, Malte Bril, Wouter Abraham  
and Sean Shao.

Best regards,

Mark Schonewille
