"Pop up window" for Custom Properties in drawing??
Is there a way to make a pop-up window appear, when the mouse is hovered over
an object in a drawing? What I want, is for the product description to appear next to the object when I move my mouse over the object. This could be taken from the custom properties. I've seen some information on data graphics and callouts, but do not see anything about the information only showing when the mouse hovers over the object. This is for Visio 2007 Pro

Visio menu Help - Microsoft Office Visio Help and type
"tool tips" into the search box. On Mon, 4 Aug 2008 20:21:01 -0700, Keith wrote: I am looking for the same info. I am not sure what you mean by the "help facility." Could you please explain?

Make sure you are running Visio in developer mode which allows you access
to the shapesheet. Select the Visio object then right mouse click and open the shapesheet. Once the shapesheet opens right mouse click on it and place a check mark in the miscellaneous section, this will display this section when the shapesheet is opened for this object. Under the miscellaneous section locate the comment cell. Enter the desired text in this field, it will display for a certain amount of time when the mouse pointer is placed over the object.

I have various versions of Visio, even with developer mode off the shapesheet option is still visible from the appropriate menus and from the double-click behavior list. -- Regards, Paul Herber, Sandrila Ltd.

Yes another way of displaying the shapesheet would be to use Paul's method
the choice is up to the user. James W. -------------------- From: Paul Herber Newsgroups: microsoft.public.visio.general Subject: "Pop up window" for Custom Properties in drawing??
