Re: Suggestion on hints for "Networks" tab

 

Hi,

Vitaly, what you tell is absolutely right. Though, I think that errors
hints can overlap the default tips by manipulation with DOM using
JavaScript. I think if we add this, we'll improve UI as all hints will be
in place. Personally, I believe that tips and interactive help is much
better than documentation, though it should be updated also.
