Excellent! I see the Help icon is back to forum to.

I don't think the tooltip link there ^ helps me any. You can clearly see in DOMi (see my pic) that it's supposed to be there and the value is ... 'missing image' which is exactly what i see. So, that value needs to be changed. Apparently it's not coded correctly, or something.

Hey, guys. Im really sorry. Im not ignoring you, Ive just been busy.

We bought a piece of property in Craig Woods about 30 miles north (near New Castle) and are building a log home. Our current house sold about 2 weeks ago and we are going to have to go into temporary housing for about 4-5 months. We had to get a construction loan going to fund the new location. We have 6 weeks to get everything packed which we intend to do ourselves.

I dont know how to use the DOM Inspector nor do I use Stylish. The code was just raw html and the CSS was implemented with KompoZer. KompoZer is not current so all the box shadow/radius/text shadow may disappear if you touch and save the file using KompoZer. I have never implemented "Tool Tips" so Im not sure how that would be done. Dont know if "Alt-Text" is the same or not. Seems to me "Alt-text" was used to idenitfy words when images were missing.

On edit - changing these 3 lines of the HTML does provide tool tips in FF 6.0a1. Basically it is just the "title=xxx" statement for each object:

It wont allow me to post the code.

Here is a link to a text file.
http://gotnarcosis.com/brucewittmeier/T ... olTips.txt

If there is anything specific I could help with just email me. Looks like you are near finalizing the TMP help page. Glad I could help at least a little bit. Looks like you have everything under control.

The TMP Addon has always been most important to me. Thanks to all of you for this great add-on.

Bruce

makondo

in this link http://kb.mozillazine.org/Firefox_:_Iss ... n%27t_Work

it clearly say that using ALT text for tooltip is incorrect
ALT text should only be shown as an alternative to the image, not as well as the image.

i can remove the alt-text since all the image are save with the page and we don't have missing image.

Bruce
Thank you for your work

You're welcome.

I applied the Alt text at each image and when images load slow you may see
"missing image" appear. I dont think it hurts, its just in case an image gets corrupted and wont display.

The tag in the HTML for tool tips is "title". I just over looked it during the development. :) Looks like you have already incorporated it to the two top images.

onemen,
the fox tooltip looks good now.

Bruce,
glad to hear from you! Which New Castle? VA? I used to go camping not too far from there, around Natural bridge/Glasgow when i lived on the east coast. Used to drive around there quite a bit. Love that area!
When packing, take photos of the content of each box and tape pics to boxes. Or write down in a book every little thing you put in a box and number them (the boxes). Time consuming but, believe me, will save you time on unpacking and looking for some little thing you know you have ... somewhere ... (and then go and buy another one 'cause you can't get to it or find it). It's the little stuff that gets you! We moved a while ago from the east coast to Colo and had to pack a 3 story house + 2 story garage (filled with stuff). But did it quite efficiently, i should say, in a week or so (of course, we moved to a 3 times smaller 1 floor house, so we auctioned a lot before moving. After all, all you really need is a roof and a recliner ... well, a fridge, stove and a bathroom wouldn't hurt).
Good Luck, Bruce!

onemen, I discovered how to do tooltips yesterday (4/16/2011). If you want to remove the Alt-text "missing image" thats ok. I just used it primarily when I was developing to identify what images I might have missed. As I said before the only use for "missing image" is if an image gets corrupted and wont load - the user is told.

Tooltips are applied from a tag called "title=???". I never saw it before but it is very simple. The current page reflects this change.

===

makondo, Yes, New Castle, Va. Natural Bridge is pretty awesome. We live at Mile marker 141 of hwy 81 and Natural Bridge is something like 175 or so. We camped at Yogi Bear Campground several years ago and it was one of the best times we ever had. I towed the trailer out on Thursday. Back to Roanoke and picked up two 4-wheelers and mama. We spent the night - did 4-wheeling all day the next day. We both will never forget this time together.

Both sons came up the next day and one with two more 4 wheelers. They went riding and we took the kids thru the Animal Preservation and fed Ostriches, LLamas and many other wildlife out the back of the PU truck. They had a blast.


You guys have done an awesome job with the TMP addon. Hats off to all of you.

One thing missing entirely from your Help page is any reference to the few minor differences between the Windows and Mac OS versions of TMP. The biggest being the extra Tools menu item to delete saved sessions. This menu item was necessary because Apple still thinks we don't need all those pesky right-click control features. :P

Something else that popped out at me is the absence of the word "backup" in the TMP Settings section. Also the titles are slightly different. The index shows:

"TMP Settings - Restore, Defaults, Import & Export Settings"

and the section below is titled:

"TMP Settings - Restore, Import & Export"

Seems like the word "backup" would be what some people look for and is relevant to that feature.

I would also suggest a small edit to this line:

"Default settings are Boldface and Italic"

Make the word "and" boldface as well. It helps lock down that both styles are used to indicate Default Settings. Believe it or not, some of our students would see it as it is now and think it means either. :?

currently the help page only cover Tabmix options window

we really need to add help content for:
Session manager menus (main menu,sub menu and context menu)
Closed tabs list context menu.

if any of you like to assist by writing the help content, i will appreciate it.

Don't look at me, i don't use TMP session manager and have no SM menus anywhere. But when i activated SM just now ... i can't see what there needs an explanation. I mean - it's a menu. If people don't understand what those menuitems mean ... maybe they shouldn't be using a browser.
I also don't think a word 'backup' is needed. The Settings > Restore default/Export/Import is consistent with other exts. that have this option and is self-explanatory, i'd think.
But if somebody wants to submit explanation to menus ... don't let me stop you. The above is just my opinion (and i'm stickin' with it!).

onemen,
please do this 2 things:

1. Here's the part i think needs to be simply deleted 'cause it's mentioned in the TT which didn't exist at the time the first help page was created:

'Firefox® - Add-ons - Extensions,Themes and Plugins

Firefox® Addons (Extensions, Themes and Plugins) may interfere with one another and create errors or cause customization to look incorrect. The easiest way to isolate add-ons as being the problem is to use a clean profile.'

Or add this at the end of it:
'For more information on how to create a new profile, see the
Troubleshooting tips link at the top of the page.'

2 Also, in the section about screenshots, add at the end:

'You can also attach an image to your post in this forum: click Preview button under the quick reply box and look for 'Add an Attachment' button wich should appear under the preview reply box.'

About Rename Tab. As i said and showed before in another thread: Menu - Tab context menu, right under the existing paragraph, just above the Back blah... If you're going to add a pic, it's not a big one and can probably go right there, i'd say below this:

Code:
In order to use the Rename Tab option, the Rename Tab checkbox needs to be checked. The Rename tab menu item will show in the tab Right click context menu. When the menu item Rename tab is clicked, it will show a popup.

'Rename this tab regardless of its address' option means that the new renamed tab title will remain even if the tab URL changes, for instance if another link opened in this tab.
If this option is UNchecked, the new title will remain until the tab address changes, for instance if a new link opens in this tab, the tab will show the title of that new address.


Now, i don't know if you can do this (place a pic under description), if not, it will have to get its own .categorydiv with the pic on the left, like all others.

People,
please post your suggestions and corrections here, don't be shy!

What else did you want to do?

I see this needs a new shot (Unloaded tab is new):
onemen wrote:
0.4.0.2pre.120507a
Added: New style for unloaded tabs


I couldn't find anything Mozilla or KB on this, which would be nice to simply link to. How do you unload tabs?

Good shot! Image Now you need to combine it with my description above. I can't edit html, you will have to do this (or email Gary)
