Description Steven Walling 2013-02-14 02:56:36 UTC
Currently the only method to open the task explanation contained in the one step guider on http://toro.wmflabs.org/wiki/Special:GettingStarted is to click a very very small question mark icon. If possible, we should open the guider on hovering over the task icon or title as well. If doing so on hover is a pain, then making the icons/titles clickable would be a good fallback. 

Munaf, CCing you for your input.

It shouldn't be too difficult.  We do probably want to keep the onclick, because of touch devices like tablet computers.

Do you also want to close the guider when they stop hovering (mouseout)?

Yes to both comments. :)

Update for the sake of documentation: after testing a prototype on Labs, we found it too annoying to introduce 'on hover' to the task title and icon. We plan to keep it only on the ? icon.
