Some features that appear throughout Visual Studio perform similar actions in different contexts.

Explain and give examples of how the ellipsis buttons, down-arrow buttons and tool tips act in this manner. Why do you think the Visual Studio IDE was designed this way?


An ellipsis button indicates that a dialog will be displayed when the button is clicked. The down-arrow button indicates that there are more options, both for toolbar icons and for items in the Properties window. Moving the mouse pointer over most icons displays the icon’s name as a tool tip. These features make the Visual Studio IDE easier to learn and use.
