Dialog "Change single button" -> add multiline inputfield "notes"

Post by *t3ster »

Each button you can edit has:
------
Command:
Paramaters:
Ionfile:
Icon:
Tooltip
------

Is there any chance you might consider adding an extra multi line inputfield "notes". In 'notes' the user could add anything regarding that button
that can serve as a sort of notes. It could contain anything the user want's remember regarding that button (paths, special instructions, command info,...etc...). You don't have to call it notes it's just a suggestion.

Thank you for feedback!

Currently I am using the tooltip for notes, but I wanted to avoid using the the tooltip for that as I wanted to use the tooltip for showing actual tooltip related info. Also the tooltip has a size limitation. Also often I only want to have some way of having a note 'attached' to the button without showing a tooltip.

Still thank you for feedback, I really appreciate it!
