Hi @Product Management Team ,

it would be really nice if help text boxes (on-screen tips) understood HTML just like message boxes.

Consider the following example:

(notice that you can use italic in a label, but not bold)

A standard message box offers more HTML support

In an on-screen tip it's much worse—that would look like this

That object is not capable of interpreting HTML at all, but it would be nice if it was, the same applies to the hover tooltip.

OK, you could use Dynawrite objects instead of labels to support more formatting than a label does, but there's no such alternative for on-screen tips.

The UX would just be more appealing.

Best,
Helmut
