question about pop up info windows in Apps - 2008/03/17 16:37 Hi all. I'm not sure of their actual name, but those little pop up windows that appear when a cursor is ponted at a menu item or clickable item in some apps. Sometimes they provide more info on the item, sometimes they just repeat the info that is already visible.
Is there any way to disable them for all or just certain apps ? When using iPhoto 08 and moving my cursor over items in the source list, these little windows are popping up and changing as fast as I move the cursor from item to item on the list. Here, all they are doing is repeating the same info as I can already see on the screen. They cover the next 2 lower items in the list and I find it anoying. So, if I coud delay their appearance or eliminate them, I would be happier.

Thanks for any help.
