Using Tool Tips
Tool tips are information text boxes that are displayed when the mouse hovers over some part of the user interface.

Tool tips are available where acronyms are used. For example, on the main window there is a 'DD' label. When the mouse hovers over this label the text 'Decimal Degrees' is displayed. Some tools tips have substantial amounts of text. For example, the label for the entry of LSDs on the main window has a tool tip that describes each field of the LSD in detail. This also occurs on each window where LSDs are entered or viewed.

Tools tips are availble for each button on all windows. A description of the action of the button is displayed.
