What, where and when? Please be more specific.

abenkovskii commented 9 years ago

In the tooltip. In case the user forgets it.

Oh, you mean the status bar (the bottom, screen-wided window)? I don't really want to make the status any wider (maybe one more line could be squeezed, but that's it). But I wanted the status to be playground for widgets.

Right now, the most probable place where a new user would be stuck at, is the main menu - if he doesn't know how to switch windows, it's unlikely he switches them by accident. And the tip is there.

the tip is there.

currently this tip is in the loading screen

image That's how it looks. I tried to minimize the place it takes, given that it stays at the screen at all times.

Oh, and just to have common vocabulary: The "status window" is the rectangle on the bottom left. The "tip" is the rectangle on the bottom right. The "status bar" or just "status" is a fuzzy term and can sometimes mean the whole rectangle at the bottom (status window + tip) or just the status window.
