Tooltips are enabled even if I am an advanced user

[SW1FT]

I'm using Firefox Developer Edition 39.0a2.
See https://github.com/chrisaljoudi/uBlock/wiki/Advanced-user-features#no-tool-tips

Issue comes since 6e317ff as "body:not(.advancedUser) [data-tip]:after {"
was replaced to "body [data-tip]:after {". I've created a pull request #1279 to fix this.

firefox only?
pt: somente no firefox?

@ialexsilva No, the Chromium version also has the same problem, just tested with Opera Beta 29.0.

Tooltip doesn't show in Chrome.

Btw, why is enabling/disabling tooltips even tied to I am an advanced user option? As an advanced user, I actually like the tooltips.

Can we compromise to enable/disable tooltips as a separate config option?

[SW1FT]

@Dashed Tooltips are nice and all but people that already know what the buttons do don't need that feedback overlaying the popup UI. However, I do agree that maybe we could have a separate option for it.

@SW1FT If there is a separate option, to retain default behaviour, maybe it can be automatically be disabled whenever I am an advanced user is enabled.

[chrisaljoudi]

@SW1FT This is intentional. I'm considering adding a separate setting, but I guess that all depends on how much of a problem it is to have tooltips.

(The tooltips make a large difference in usability).

Just realized I have an older version installed via the Chrome store: v0.9.3.0.

@chrisaljoudi Is 0.9.3.5 going to be published to the store soon?

[chrisaljoudi]

@Dashed Yeah, the Chrome Web Store says it's "Pending Review" — hopefully it'll make it through soon.

I like the idea of having the tooltips and advanced being separate options. Advanced users, especially new ones, may want to view tooltips.

"Advanced users, especially new ones"

😒

An individual can be an advanced user, but be new to ublock. In other words, someone could have the technical savvy and know-how to use ublock to the fullest (and have read all the ublock documentation and wiki), but still not have much experience using ublock. If this software is to grow in popularity, that is a strong (and vocal) demographic to attract.
