Description Axel RICHARD CLA 2016-07-19 03:35:25 EDT
A possible enhancement could be to have tooltips for palette tools.
It could be useful to add a description of a tool.
Comment 1 Steve Monnier CLA 2016-07-20 05:44:22 EDT
Thanks for your detailed enhancement submit.
We agree that it would be an interesting improvement. Nevertheless, we have currently not planned to work on it in the following releases.

You can already define a tooltip for a palette tool using the "documentation" attribute of the tool.

It's used in EcoreTools in the Archetype viewpoint.*

Does that fit your need?
