Yes, please do not add tooltips that merely repeat what the interface already makes clear. I think that, while the longer helps texts are useful, short tooltips will often be stupid. What we could have is long/verbose tooltips which appear with a right mouse click. On this subject, please read http://www.iarchitect.com/stupid.htm#STUPID16 Actually, the whole 'interface hall of shame is interesting'. It has also something on nested tabfolders :) JMarc
