What will the configuration line be?


If you have
MOptions item = value_1, value_2

you can do a
Tooltip value_1 = text


Thanks Stefan,

When implemented there seems to be a finite number of characters that are visible under a tool tip, is this an OS defined limit or something that can be changed?


ELOG itself has a limit of 256 characters, but that can be changed easily. I found that Mozilla Firefox only showed 70 characters and then three dots ("..."), while Internet Explorer showed all 256 characters, wrapping words if necessary. So it strongly depends on the browser.
