contact window tooltip by weirdal27 on 05-23-2004 at 07:28 AM

so i hover over the contact and click the plus icon, about a second later, a tooltop with a bunch of bars on it and it says something too and then it disappears before you can read it (I cant tell, i cant get a screenshot)

hmm, try going up to the top and using it from there? I pretty much need more information. And i think we all do.

ok, i'll try to explain it more clearly :)

first, i click on the plus! icon next to a persons name

note: this only happens after a click a second (and any after that) persons icon, it doesnt happen on the first one i click

then, the drop down menu comes up, and for a split second about a second after the drop down menu comes up a tooltip (little yellow thing when you hover someones name)

and i can tell it looks something like this:

||||||||||||||||||||

(I dont know what the text really says, sometimes its long, someimtes its short)



EDIT: i looked at it farther and it looks like its related  to the "right click to see ways to interact with this person blah blah blah" tooltip because if i hover over someones name or plus icon, that comes up, and if i wait for that to come up, the weird one doesnt come up when clicking the icon


i cant explain it any better, just try it for yourself
click the plus icon by someones name before the "right click to interact" thing comes up and just hover your mouse on the plus icon for a second after clicking it

(it might take 2 trys)

That is just the same tooltip as if you would wait to click the plus-icon that flashes very quickly... It can't be considered a bug realy, it is just the way it works.
