Keep notification pop-ups with tool instructions visible at all times #3

Open GabrielMajeri opened 2 years ago

GabrielMajeri commented 2 years ago

When I pressed on the "draw walls" button, a notification popped up explaining how to use this tool. However, after clicking around for a bit, the notification disappeared and I forgot what I had to do to exit the tool 😅

I think it would be more helpful to keep this notification (or some similar info display) visible at all times while using the tool, so the user doesn't have to remember what was initially written on the popup.

There is the Help toggle (question mark button in the toolbar) that has togglable and more detailed tool instructions. I agree it is a bit hard to find and thus bad UX. If anyone would love to try their hand at improving the UX and making the help button more obvious (or even improving the instructions), I would be very open to the idea and you can be as creative as you want as long as it fits the rest of the app stylistically.

I'll leave this as help wanted with an ui/ux focus. :)
