all of the editor dialogs need "help" button or help tooltips or whatever is decided across the product Shuang and Simone--please let us know what you decide the UI should be so we can implement it.

Help buttons are definitely out. We're in the process of deciding how to best use tooltips in the dialogs (discussions are imminent with German Bauer), so that should be decided shortly. I'm also adding Vera Horiuchi to the cc: list since she's the Help guru for 5.0.

m14+

M15 (post-beta)

move to M14; we really should get this in before beta. Vera and I need to get together and talk about what kind of help each dialog needs and prepare a short specification.

since tooltips aren't going to be in beta1, push off to M16

We shouldn't have to add a Composer-specific Help button. Shouldn't it be part of the global "OK Cancel" set of buttons? Shouldn't all dialogs that use "OK Cancel" also have "Help"?

Netscape 6 doesn't have Help buttons in dialogs -- as per spec! We are using improved UI text and tooltips instead.

I see, changin summary to reflect that.

tooltips for dialogs will probably not make it in for m16, setting to m17

this has to be done between 5/9 and 5/16 per meeting with techpub/ue/engineers

m17

setting to m18

setting to nsbeta3+

adding brackets to status whiteboard

resolve this as fixed; any missing tooltips should be filed as separate bugs
