Product Description:

This FileMaker plug-in enables solution developers to use interactive help tools such as help tags (tool tips), coachmarks, or roll-over effects for layout objects and controls (data fields, buttons, pictures etc.). By providing these features, 24U SimpleHelp Plug-In now allows developers to create FileMaker solutions with a really intuitive user interface!

  • Help tag is a brief text message (help, tip, description) that appears when user moves the mouse pointer over an object or a hot rectangle.
  • Coachmark is a colored oval drawn around an object that needs to be brought to user's attention.
  • Roll-over effect is any recognizable (usually visible or audible) feedback to moving mouse pointer to/from a specific layout location.


Primary features:
  • Attach help tags (tool tips) to user interface elements
  • Ability to provide user with visible feedback known as roll-over effect
  • Display coachmarks (colored ovals) around layout objects
  • Ability to check mouse position at the time of last click
  • Increase the productivity of users
  • Involve almost no extra work in comparison to demos, manuals or training
  • Safe against status area hiding, window scrolling, text ruler, etc.
  • Automatically locate layout objects, such as buttons, fields and pictures
  • Defining help tags is quick and easy with 24U SimpleHelp Utility

24U SimpleHelp Plug-In ReviewI submitted the… - Version: 10b1m, 4/25/2003 06:20AM PST

idea for this plug-in to 24U on March 4th 03, et voilá, merely 6 weeks later here it is. Great job guys! This first public beta runs absolutely flawless. The only thing missing are extended help tags (those which show up for instance in iTunes if you press the CMD key on a help tag), but I'm sure they are in the pipeline.
