I am pleased to request you to add a function that displays guidance on the title of each item using a function such as "tool tip".

Although such guidance may not be necessary for the items set as default, a custom field uniquely created will need guidance since it may in some cases be difficult to figure out what to enter in the field only by seeing the title. Providing a function to display guidance will help project members to understand what kind of information they need to enter.

For example, supposing that a field like "Root cause of defect" is prepared, I believe a guidance like the following text will lead people to provide a more unified description as required information:

"Be sure to conduct a root cause analysis using 5 Whys method. For example, when a Foo function does not work well, if only a description that the Bar variable is forgot to be initialized is provided, a one-time-only solution could be made causing possible recurrence of the problem. A real root cause analysis will be achieved by analyzing to the extent why the Bar variable is forgot to be initialized and how well the description is given to the design documents. A preventative measure should also be described after such analysis is made."
See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/5_Whys

Also as reported in the Ticket No 4705, "custom fields cannot be added as a textarea" is one of the reason why we want to have such a function. See http://bugs.mantisbt.org/view.php?id=4705

Items such as "Description" or "Step to Reproduce" are currently managed to be used to enter a long description changing the name of the title of items and a field of textarea style can only provide three fields at most; therefore, some single fields are used to enter multiple contents. In that case such guidance is considered to be effective as well.

The web page such as MyView is implemented using "title" attribute of Anchor tag, but if a library such as Yahoo UI Library, overLIB or BoxOver is implemented, less time lag is considered to be made until display resulting in the better performance.
