Support for presenting any Input/Output data assigned to a Task??

This tooltip plug-in is outstanding. Any chance it could be extended to support Input/Output mappings? I would love to help if considered a good idea. Thank you for your kind consideration.
Hi @proth1, thank you very much, I'm always happy when some Modeler-users out there use the Tooltip-plugin! 😊
Concerning your Input-/Output-idea: Technically, this shouldn't be a problem. As I started this plugin, I also experimented around with different properties to be included within the tooltips. Finally, I came to the conclusion, that I didn't want to provide redundant information which might be already covered by other plugins, e.g. the Transaction-Boundaries-Plugin, or the Property-Info-Plugin.
What exactly do you expect to be shown: A marker, that there are IO-Mappings, or do you mean the concrete mappings in details?

Thank you, @rnschk. Sorry for my delay in getting back to you.
Yes, I would want to see the actual mappings, if there are any.
Ok, I understand, and I can try to add this feature, but I can't promise when it will happen. 🙈 At first glace it might seem simple, but I just had a brief look at the I/O-mapping oppertunities. There are at least four different types of mapping, namely: List
, Map
, Script
, String or expression
, which all have different settings and partially even with a variable amount of entries. This might be tricky to be arranged in a clear and structerd way:
Thank you very much @rnschk. As an MVP I think the significant value provided comes by initially just indicating that there is or is not any input/output settings for a given activity. Maybe a view like the following without the complexity of displaying the lower-level details.
As a Tool Tip, this is good enough and then you can drill down on the property sheet directly to get to the details.
