Tooltip

NOTE:
This function is a preview in TARGET version V20. After the release of V21 this function will not be available in V20 any longer.

Moving the cursor in schematic or layout to a certain spot a little info box (tooltip) appears. It gives information on all objects which are located at cursor position, even if they are superposed to each other.

From how many milliseconds the tooltip appears and after how many milliseconds it vanishes again can be set in menu "Settings / Settings (INI File...)"

Image: Object inspector. Click in each of the lines on the right to make settings.

If you set the value for "Tooltips active" from "yes" to "no", the tooltip function is switched off.

Alternatively, please have a look at the sidebar to the right. If the ...Info button is gray, the function is activated. A click M2 on it allows settings of this function. If it is flat-black, the function is switched off.
