It would be a game changer to add pop-up windows with description.

[kurt_hectic]

Hello, 

TyFlow is a quite complicated piece of software. To learn it, use it, and don't forget stuff, it would be great to follow what zbrush or 3ds max did back in the days- add small description, ideally with images or gif animations, explaining what a specific option does. 

Examples:  

alembic export; I have no idea what does it mean: 023-09-05_10-51.jpeg

3ds max- description + shortcuts + video + direct link to the help file with more info:  2023-09-05_10-52.jpeg

zbrush: 2023-09-05_10-56.jpeg 2023-09-05_10-55.jpeg


I'm not an expert, but it would require to implement some dynamic links to the local help file?
Can be done once and then update when file is updated.

Thanks!

[tyFlow]

The problem here is not the idea, but the time it takes to implement it. It already takes enough of my time to keep the official tyFlow documentation up to date. If I tried also creating custom tooltips (with images/videos) for every feature, I'd never be able to focus on any other area of development - that alone would take up all of my time. So it's a nice idea but not feasible for me.
