If you are talking about the source template, instead of a yellow popup each 
field has text that is gray not yellow.


For more information, from the home page, click on the heading four 
sourcewriter tips, and the information you seek is explained and 
demonstrated.

On the individual information screen for myself, I hovered over death and 
it never showed ('yellow'). I am not filling that in yet. ;-)

They seem to be disappearing somehow?

Re: [LegacyUG] Four SourceWriter tips

2008-09-06 Thread RICHARD SCHULTHIES 
In checking out what you stated, I found that the 'yellow box' at present time, 
only shows up over icons, but not over field names (like born) on neither the 
main screen, nor the individual information screen. But on the main screen, 
they do show up for the spouses of the children. If I remember correctly, when 
the main page showed short locations the long would come up in a 'yellow', but 
not now. I did not check any further than those mentioned.

Thank you for the suggestion.  I checked and I have all of the pop-ups

When I try the "hover your cursor over the field  name on the left and a

Tip #1 - Faint instructions
The image below (click for larger) shows the Source Detail screen for 
adding information about an England birth certificate. Notice that 
each field contains faint, light-grey text providing a tip for what 
should be entered in that field. For example, the Registration 
District field's tip says "Type the registration district." So here 
you would type the registration district.


Did you notice that when you click in a field to start typing the 
information that the light-grey text disappears? This works as 
intended, but sometimes it would sure be nice to know what the text 
says, to remind you what you are supposed to type. The solution is 
simple. Just hover your cursor over the field name on the left and a 
yellow memo field will appear with the same instructions that are in 
the field. This is also helpful when there is not enough room on your 
screen to see all of the instructions.
