Mention the new network toggle functionality in the tooltip.

As requested by @jonasschnelli at #8996 (comment), add a tooltip:

[paveljanik]

".
" to save translators work... But ugly 8)

[jonasschnelli]

Nice!

I think the standalone "." is okay.

utACK 45e0dca. What happens if you replace the br with a single space?

[paveljanik]

@luke-jr Click, because it is not a button. Yes. Changed.

@MarcoFalke Without br, the tooltip is three lines long and the break is in the middle of a sentence. It looked really bad thus I have copied the solution used for other long tooltips. First line is info, second line is the help what to do next/description.

[luke-jr]

I believe this is a new string, so prefer to put the period in the translation. (keep the <br> outside however)

[paveljanik]

@luke-jr Pardon? What is a new string?

[luke-jr]

"Network activity disabled" has not been in any Core releases yet.

[paveljanik]

@luke-jr Right! So this can be even more nicer. Will do in an hour or so.

[paveljanik]

Ready for review.

@jonasschnelli Does anyone else think its a bit too easy to actually turn off your whole network. I think this tooltip will help a bit, but it seems a pretty benign thing to just click on that little network symbol and you don't realize you're disconnecting yourself from the network. Would it be better (or possible) to give you a little drop down or a confirmation or something?

@sdaftuar?

[jonasschnelli]

@morcos: No strong opinion. Maybe a confirmation dialog could make sense. Though, maybe only at the first time, otherwise this will annoy experience users.
At the moment, the feature is relatively hidden.

[MarcoFalke]

Agree that the feature is hidden. Also, I think we don't need to prevent accidental disconnects, as the cross mark is shown clearly, so the user can figure out what happened pretty fast.

[paveljanik]

What about making cross mark red?

[sdaftuar]

Just as a data point -- I was surprised by this behavior a couple days ago when I clicked on that network icon (before this tooltip was added) and unexpectedly disconnected from the network. I thought it was surprising that of the 4 icons in the bottom corner, 2 of them can be clicked on to do something while 2 don't do anything, and of those that do something, 1 gives a dropdown (the one for changing units) while 1 just does something immediately (disconnect the network).

[sipa]

Maybe we should at a warning bar at the top, similar to the "prerelease software" one, that says "You are currently disconnected from the network, click [here] or on the network icon in the status bar to re-enable"?

[paveljanik]

Three ideas were mentioned before:

• slide overlay (as in initial sync phase)

• confirm first "Disable network" click

• make cross red

[luke-jr]

Maybe clicking the icon should give a context menu with disconnect and network settings (open the options dialog to the right tab)?
