Mouse-over tip text gives hints for using icons and fields.
Tool tips are descriptive text that displays in a small pop-up box when the user glides their mouse over an object.
Glide the mouse pointer over a button, icon, or field and pause for a few seconds to display the tip text, a short description of what the button, icon, or field does.
Tip text provides brief explanations of certain buttons, icons, and fields. If a single keystroke can accomplish the same function as clicking on the button or icon, the tip text may display the function key as part of the explanation description.
