I guess it would be better to make it a separate window accesible from the
Help menu.

Instead of Tip of the Day, how about the background be made to have ALL
(or most) of the keyboard shortcuts. The user could keep the background
with all the handy info, or change it.

So it's a dedicated space to display context help messages? Sounds and
looks good.

The stuff on Facebook had been fantastic and has had great review. People
go to Facebook to read stuff, so it's a proper channel and kudos to the
ones posting those (Stian or Josh I think), top notch.
The help area -- if done like Ableton -- is big enough for some bold

Ok I see this is true indeed. I sometimes read the Tips, but rarely and
they hardly ever seem to be worth the time.
I think it could be different if they appeared rarely and only after say 50

do. However it is still the pro
I marked the issue in the tracker as invalid and closed it seeing as there is
alot of negative feedback against something like this.

I completely agree with Tres. I personally hate those "Tip of the day"
popups and click them away immediately without reading anything. For
me they're just annoying. I have never seen a tip that really made say
"ah, good to know". The only thing they do well is interrupting the
user.

@Jonathan,
I don't mind adding my thoughts, but I don't think it's relevant to
statistical data. Keep stats, drop this interrupting dialog. I don't
think it should even be mentioned. Just another dialog to dismiss
every-single-time I install.

I still strongly advise against it. Photoshop doesn't do this. Pidgin
doesn't do this. VirtualBox doesn't do this. This is reminiscent of a 90s
computing culture that people don't want.
My son is 3 yrs old and he instinctively closes pop-ups that interrupt what
he's doing. I've opened the sof
Can't this be solved by adding a "[ ] Don't show these tips at startup"
option in the Tip dialog window?

Can you mention this in the issue filed in the tracker. With your suggestion on
how to improve that and if need be migrate away from it.

There is a help area in the bottom left of Ableton which is absolutely
crucial to it's success as a DAW. Tips of the day are intrusive and remind
me of poorly developed applications from the 90s.
I vote a strong no to this and would prefer a hover-over help description
area, with shortcut explana
Done.

I think that this can still be applied right now with out the data.
We could provide some really basic tips like shortcuts etc. It is a very good
idea. We need to make sure that the user though with these popups can have
them not be displayed at startup if the so desire.
Can you file a enhancem
As I mentioned in "Collecting anonymous statistical data" thread, seeing
what features of the program are not used by the users could help us
display a proper Tip of The Day to make sure the user will learn something
new, not read how to save files, if he does it 20 times a week.
We'd need a list
