<div class="im">> (and i'm not talking about the real tooltips you're getting when hovering a button: those ones are very useful: i asked for one, i get it. i'm talking about tooltips, alert boxes, notifications and other artifacts that popup from nothing without me having asked for them.)<br>
<br>
</div>But wasn't that what was suggested? A regular tooltip when you hover a<br>
disabled (greyed out) menu item? In the example of disabled Paste-item<br>
it could simply state "Locked layer". It won't appear unless you hover<br>
the disabled item. I can't see how that could be intrusive?<br></blockquote><div><br>Yes, that was my idea from the very beginning.<br> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;">

<br>
</div>Well, you might have an idea there, but no other programs use that as<br>
far as I know. Wouldn't it be better to do like other programs do? We<br>
are already seeing a lot of users complain that Scribus does things<br>
different.<br>

<br>The worst memory I have (decades ago): WordPerfect didn't work like any other wordprocessor, and I couldn't find the way to exit the program; the F1 key did something completely different than bringing a help screen ... I had to reboot the computer to exit the damn thing!<br>
