| Also
known as a tooltip, a balloon is a brief message that indicates what would occur if
they were to click on that icon/button. This is found on most new
programs as users to quickly learn what each button or dropdown menu
does. If you are unable to get a button to display a balloon, it is
likely that the program does not support this feature.
Below is an example of what a
balloon tip looks like in Microsoft Windows when a user places their
mouse over the Start button. As can be seen by the example if the
user was unfamiliar with Windows they would know the start button is
a clickable button that enables them to navigate through
Windows. In this example if you also place your mouse over this picture it will also give you an example of balloon text in your browser window.
