I'm working on an extension of tooltips (see attached file) whose primary goal is for use "instead of" footnotes in interactive documents.
Suggestions for improvements are more than welcome
I really would like to see this feature as part of the core: \setupfootnotes[...,location=tooltip,...]
This way one can use the normal \footnote command for a print and interactive version of a document.
I agree. I was thinking about this issue recently with HTML (why bother putting footnote/endnote text at the end of a page when you can put it in a tooltip?). It might (?) be worthwhile to also have an option for tooltip display of bibliographic references as well... Bruce
