I like all of these ideas.galneweinhaw wrote: Really, I think all it needs is a few options, these are what I would recommend:
Location: 1. Bottom Corner, 2. Bubble next to and with pointer to stamp
I could see for those things with small notes, having them not directly at the mouse would be a pain and easy to miss them
For many of my notes, however, I copy and paste sections of the SRD into... making them huge, and having them come from the bottom of the screen is very nice.
Reveal: 1. On hover, 2. On Click
I LOVE the eye curser idea, definitely, for sure, must have!
An icon: on/off
On many of my non-mt maps, alot of the details are already in the map... and I have to put info stamps by them, or have one global info marker that describes everything in the room. However, when I add actual objects to the map, I can put the info right in the stamp. The problem now is, with a map full off stuff, I would have no idea to look for those one or to added objects. Thus, the obtion to have a little info marker in one of the corners of the stamp would be nice.
How about this as an idea to incorporate it?
Reveal options would be:
Off (maybe people don't want it to reveal)
Hover (as it is now)
Cursor (cursor turns into eye)
Location options would be:
Bottom (the note appears at the bottom of the map as they do now)
Object (the note appears at the object)
The check box to display an information icon is either on or off. Checked will display a nice Information Icon on the object at all times; Unchecked won't show any information icon.
Thoughts?
