Got an idea for enhancing PureBasic? New command(s) you'd like to see?

ToolTips

Post by blueb »

Could tooltips information be added to the IDE Preferences screen and the Compiler screen?

The implications of some of the options are not clear, for example:

What does "Enable OnError Lines Support" do?

Hovering over the option would kick in a multi-line tooltip that would give a more detailed explanation of correct usage.

I realize you could get a lot of flickering if you passed over each choice, so maybe....adding a new "optional" delay switch to the GadgetToolTip command, such as:
GadgetToolTip(#Gadget, Text$, Delay=2)

That options turns on support for OnError. What that is can't be explained in a small tooltip, but you can look it up in the manual.
