Synopsis: Tool tips over Holes during Pick-and-Drop
Description
All toolbar buttons have useful tool tips, as one would expect. Unfortunately, during pick-and-drop these tool tips are not displayed. This makes it difficult for new users to know where to drop. The following has happened to me several times: 1. I picked an object. 2. I moved the mouse to the toolbar. 3. I could not remember which button represented the hole I needed. 4. Tool tips were unavailable, so I cancelled pick-and-drop. 5. I hovered the mouse over the toolbar, using the tool tips to find the hole. 6. I picked again. 7. Having now remembered the hole, I dropped. Please display tool tips during pick-and-drop.
