----------------------------------------

Hi Chris,

I agree with Adrian, but the tabs ;) Also when you create a patch, please 
create it from root rather than anywhere else: easier to apply

Like Scott, I think we should have a property somewhere (widget.properties) to 
be able to quickly switching off all the help.

I quickly tried the patch but was unable to see anything under the fields of a 
newly created example using this URL 
https://localhost:8443/example/control/EditExample?exampleId=10000. What could 
I have missed?

My concern was to not have a too short delay before the help shows. Else we 
would better have an icon as you 1st suggested...

Also I got this error while trying under Inventory Store fields
