Tooltips are texts that appear next to your mouse cursor when you hover the cursor over an object in Graphics View. Additionally a tooltip appears, if you hover the cursor over a tool icon in the Toolbar (GeoGebra Desktop) or select a tool in the Toolbar (GeoGebra Web and Tablet App). In the Advanced tab of Properties Dialog you can specify five tooltip modes:
- Automatic
- Tooltips are shown if Algebra View only is active. Tooltip contains object type and name; in case of dependent objects the tooltip also includes object description.
- On
- Tooltips are shown whether Algebra View is shown or not. Content of the Tooltip is the same as for Automatic.
- Off
- No tooltip is shown.
- Caption
- Caption of the object is used as tooltip. You can set Caption in Basic tab of Properties Dialog.
- Next Cell
- If the object is a Spreadsheet cell, content of the cell to the right is used as tooltip.
In Advanced tab of Options Dialog you may also specify the language and timeout for tooltips.
