Hi,

I agree, I have said this before and will say it again, look at Seblod as what they do they do well, they are more aimed at websites rather than cloud databases but things like this, like AJAX validation to check for an existing record and many other things posted here are all handled well in Seblod, I would love to see Knack do all this well too for cloud databases.

Thanks

Dan

By implementing hovering field instructions we could

1. Save lots of vertical space
2. Have the instructions only pop up when needed
3. Allow more room instructions so we could write entire paragraphs
