What was the message in this dialot - I see it ends with "Hint?"
Is it perhaps "Repeat Slur Positioning Hint?"
That shouldn't be appearing while the "Now drag the ..." dialog is still
on the screen. I've tried to find a way of getting that without success.
Can you explain your sequence of operations?

yes, I think that is a good idea, some of the modern platforms don't
like popup windows at all.

Bye the way, how did the Informational Dialog "Now drag the
begin/end...." come to be so tall and narrow? I can't reshape it like
that! It seems to be allowing only one word per line.
