dan_drabek Posted June 28, 2006 Share #1 Posted June 28, 2006 Advertisement (gone after registration) Is there any way to turn off those little yellow post-it notes that pop up when my cursor passes over the page? They are driving me a little batty. Otherwise I like the new format very much. DD Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

marknorton Posted June 28, 2006 Share #2 Posted June 28, 2006 What some call "Tool Tips" should only be displayed when your mouse has been floating over an element for a second or so. I agree that there's too many of them and it you need a tool tip to show you what an icon means, the icon design is bad because the whole point of icons is that they should be intuitive. Can't see any option to turn them off though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stumac Posted June 28, 2006 Share #3 Posted June 28, 2006 I dont seem to have any pop-ups, maybee I have popup blocker turned on in my browser? Afraid not very computer literate. Regards, Stuart Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hm1912 Posted June 28, 2006 Share #4 Posted June 28, 2006 I get them too, but only if I leave the cursor over the thread heading for a bit of time. I haven't checked though to see if there is a way to turn them off. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

doubice Posted June 28, 2006 Share #6 Posted June 28, 2006 If you keep your cursor away from the gray 'Thread/Thread Starter' area, you won't be getting any pop-ups. The pop-ups are just a quick preview of what is in the thread. Enjoy the New Forum! Jan Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wda Posted June 28, 2006 Share #7 Posted June 28, 2006 Advertisement (gone after registration) I find the 'yellow post-its' generally helpful. They are not a nuisance if you avoid them until needed. David Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dan_drabek Posted June 29, 2006 Author Share #8 Posted June 29, 2006 I guess maybe I'm just not used to them, though I find it hard to imagine making use of them. They remind me of little land mines, or fleas in a carpet. I naturally figured there would be some way to turn them off. Guess I'll just have to avoid 'The Gray Zone". Thanks, DD Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
