Use Tooltip effectively.

A tooltip is a brief, informative text that appears when users hover over certain interface elements, such as a field caption or action. It helps users understand how things work without having to search for the manual.

Why use Tooltips?

✅ Improve usability: Tooltips provide quick, context-sensitive guidance right on the spot.
✅ Smoother onboarding: Tooltips help new users learn the system faster.
✅ Reduce customer support: Clear tooltips lower the need for customer assistance, saving time for everyone.
