... unless I'm missing something. Let's say you create a "Note" and use that as the name. (in the "click to add note" area). Now I get my hover in the stencil panel, good.

BUT, now let's say I drag that item MANY times into a document. I now get this annoying hover when I move my mouse across my document. I only wanted it in the Stencil. Here's a good example of just how annoying this can be. UML stencil, item: Multiplicity phrase (1..*), let's say. Name "Multiplicity". Very useful for the stencil. Now I use that 50 times in my model drawing. And there are 50 annoying hover points in my drawing.

Is there a way to turn the hover messages off in my drawing, but leave them on in the stencil view? That might do the trick.
