When the caret is positioned inside a new context, a tooltip will be shown for a couple of seconds displaying the position of the caret relative to the current element context.
Here are the common situations that can be encountered:
The caret is positioned before the first block child of the current node.
The caret is positioned between two block elements.
The caret is positioned after the last block element child of the current node.
The caret is positioned inside a node.
The caret is positioned inside an element, before an inline child element.
The caret is positioned between two inline elements.
The caret is positioned inside an element, after an inline child element.
The nodes in the previous cases are displayed in the tooltip window using their names.
You can deactivate this feature by unchecking Editor / Author+Show caret position tooltip checkbox. Even if this option is disabled, you can trigger the display of the position tooltip by pressing Shift+F2.
