Hotwords and Graphics
Besides buttons, there are other means of revealing hidden information. The most common device is the Hotword.
Move the mouse cursor over the hotword above.
Hotwords are usually highlighted in some way, like the red text above or for example:
or
However, not all highlighted text are hotwords. For example, Green Texts are commonly used to highlight points but are never hotwords.
REMEMBER: If the mouse cursor changes shape when it is over some text, then that text is a hotword and clicking on it performs some action.........
