Tooltips

Tooltips are customizable properties that display as a yellow text box when you mouse-over an element or object on the active graphic. The text box for a tooltip contains descriptive text, the current value of the graphic object, and the names of the associated objects based on the view selected in System Browser. When you move your cursor over an object or element on the active graphic, an associated tooltip displays.
