Clicking on the View/Map hint
menu item provides the means for managing the hint feature for the Map area. In the case of a vector layer the hint feature offers a possibility to display information about shape attributes whenever the mouse pointer is stopped over a particular shape. If a pixel or grid layer is being viewed, the hint feature automatically shows the data associated with a pixel under the mouse pointer.
