I've set it up so that the button is always available in debug builds,
and it's a feature you can enable via the config file in release
builds if you *really* want it.

This'll be in all future builds I send over to you or upload to the
xAPFx website.

I think it's working correctly in that respect, as it's showing you a
new tip for the new message that's now under the mouse cursor, as the
list scrolls up the screen. I think if you 'pause' the scrolling by
selecting an item the tooltip will then remain static wherever you
place the mouse.

:lol: Now you know why I hid this feature! :lol:

It's on the list of many-fine-things to improve in future though.
Quite where it fits on the priority list though...
