How can we improve Alma?

Make notes in task lists of in-process items visible by hovering the mouse pointer over the tick

Currently in the task list of in-process items there is a green tick in the "notes" column indicating when an item has a note. Unfortunately there is no quick way to see the content of said note except by clicking on the "dots" button and choosing "edit". It would be great if the note were displayed simply by hovering the mouse pointer over the green tick.

    This functionality of displaying notes on mouse-over would be helpful on all task lists in Alma. If you click on the check mark to view a note, the task gets assigned to you; often I just want to review the note, not claim the task.

    Hover functionality on the "Notes" field in the Electronic Resource Activation Task List would be a helpful upgrade, also.

    Currently we have to click a thin green check-mark to view notes -- and because the "negative space" surrounding the check-mark isn't also clickable, it's all too easy to place your cursor in the surrounding space -- instead of on the green check-mark -- and wonder why you're not being allowed to view a note that you could view before.

    If we had hover functionality for the "negative space" surrounding the check-mark, as well as for the check mark, then there would be less confusion about how to view these notes. And the entirety of shorter notes could even be viewed without having to click on them.

    Thanks for considering.

    Adding to this: it would be useful if these notes would print/display on the Excel export of the task list.
