Summary0017134: Remove obsolete checkboxes from options
DescriptionWhile trying to replicate issue mentioned here: https://www.mediamonkey.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=30&t=97646
I found that '[x] Show tooltips for context help' does not work : https://www.dropbox.com/s/qp0nzrtzrgpbvyn/Screenshot%202020-11-26%2018.39.35.png?dl=0
It always shows the tooltips for me despite the option.

I would suggest to remove the option altogether from MM5.
The same goes for '[x] Enable smooth scrolling' and '[x] Enable mouse gestures'
TagsNo tags attached.
Fixed in build2278

The removal of the smooth scrolling option causes smooth scrolling to be removed entirely in 2277.

If the goal is to de-clutter the General Options panel (which I agree with), it could be put into the Performance panel. I noticed that CPU usage with smooth scrolling off is cut in half (up to 17% instead of up to 32%); which may be helpful for users who want MM5 to be more battery-efficient.

Good catch Jordan! ;-)
I haven't realized that this option is actually used, and good idea to move it rather from General to Performance panel.
