Triggerbox improvement

[MaGoHi]

Hi,

currently the "tips" in the triggerbox cover the current weather, would be cool if the weather had priority so tips get suppressed when there is weather like rain.

Alternatively maybe a checkbox to turn them off completely

Fully agreed... I miss rain all the time because of this.

Agreed, seems every time I tab back into MD (maybe every few minutes) I have to click through several tips that I've read many times to check the triggers.

So hide all tips once you have seen them?

I personally wouldnt hide tips if there is rain, becuase the fact that tips are useful for those who havent seen them.

i agree they are useful and i had to read some more than once because i simply forgot them, so hiding them after one time reading is not good either

BUT

now(after a while in MD) i really dont care anymore about them and would rather see when i can collect rain

another Alternative:

what do you think about letting the Town Crier shout the current weather instead of  "All is well in the land", since that is always visible even with the tips active.

What is bothering me about those tips is that they pop up too often...something acts like a refresh ever so often, making another tip pop up and clouding whatever is going on.

So if we have a "Dismiss tip forever" button?

a simple checkbox in the setting maybe, so you can turn them on again if you wish

Tbh tips ought to be one time anyway. So of close is pressed then that should be permanent of that tip. plus some link to read them all again.

All in all, i for example dislike clicking close all the time, but i also think if something is done with it then do the one that takes minimal effort code wise.

I was thinking of some kind of "reset all tooltips" to make them appear.

Sure, also if it is not too much work you could add auto reset if a new tip gets added to the tips, but that might go to far

Well ... seen or not, there are way too many tips. Quite often I get multiple tips ... meaning that once I close one tip I see another tip and then another and then another.

 

So, why not add the tips to the normal information from triggerbox ? I mean to add it just below the normal information from that area. That way , nobody would mind closing them as the information they need is still present.

So are you saying the trigger box basically would have it's own little box for tips while the trigger box still shows weather ect.?

One thing I have noticed is some tips are to long and there is no way to scroll down to see the rest of the tip.
