HUD pop-up without clicking please

Postby Lure » Tue Apr 03, 2012 7:51 am

Hi, I know that you guys hate the idea, but pop-ups for each stat really should appear when I'm moving cursor over this stat. Additional clicking annoys me, multitabling means a ton of clicking already, so please-please-please make this improvement so that I can switch from my HM1 to PT4 instead of HM2. Otherwise this issue with HUD still outweighs my hatred towards HM developers.

Thank you for your feedback, but our research has found that people with your opinion are in the minority and that developing this feature would cause more problems than it would solve. As such I do not expect us to be adding this feature anytime soon.

You may find the 'lower opacity until mouse over' option useful as this gives you the same sort of functionality.

You can configure a Hud group to be shown as translucent until you mouseover it, and then it will be shown at normal translucency. To do this select the group you want to hide/show (you may want to create a new group for this) and change the Display Type from 'Normal' to 'Lower opacity until mouse over'.
You configure how translucent groups like this will be when not moused-over in the Hud Options > General Settings window. If you set this really low the group will effectively be hidden until you move your mouse over it.

I don't know how you researched this... but its the only reason I am holding off on PokerTracker. There are a ton of problems with HM2, so I don't know why you guys wouldn't try to cater to the HM people before HM2 becomes stable. If its super hard to program than I understand but if adding this feature gets even just a couple HM users to switch over than that has to be worth it.

PT4 programmers don't do what you are talking about. They do what they want to do and don't even care about customers needs/opinions. They loose at this point because of lack of interest.

I'm using HM and thinking of upgrade to PT4 but this huge increase of clicking volume is realy too much for me.

I use HM1 and didn't buy yet HM2 or PT4. I'm not gonna buy any of them yet. I still waiting to see what improves HM2 developers will do to the next update. They promise a lot of improvements and also a more lighter and easy to run version of HM2 with just the next update. I just wanna see what is about. If the problems are the same and the expected improvements didn't come then I will go on PT4 but if PT4 will be the same I think I will continue to use my old HM1 and forget about both of them.

What kind of problem this can cause? It is only change of event on which popup is showing. This could be and configuration option.

Amount of clicks and mouse movements is very important value for "HUD programs" evaluation. Every time I have to click in PT4 for something I don't need in HM1 I ask myself "Do I use right program?". Do you know how much times is this in only one session? :o
