Morning, I think it'll be a nice feature to have tool-tips inside your your VST-dll or executable for UI elements.

I'm think along the lines of placing such a tool tip primitive inside an UI element (knob, slider, etc., whatever is connected to the view of the application).

Text and time offset before display should be customizable of course.

Thanks for your time.

I guess it would have to have a V input as well as font, style and String inputs or maybe everything but the String could be set for all some were else?

Hi TomC, I built a pop-up info system by my own, you might use that:

    Open it in SynthMaker?

    It goes on the track you’re editing there, in place of that track’s sound, and into My sounds. Your other tracks stay as they are.

    Want to keep that track’s sound? Start a new song in SynthMaker first (Song › New song), then open this.
