Hovering on the symbol

Large symbol consists of two hovering areas:
When entering the mouse-pointer into the symbol area, the inside area of the symbol becomes full.
a.) On the borders of the symbol the mouse hover shows the label-head containing the title of the content. By left clicking on the symbol, this label can be set permanently ON or OFF. Leaving the symbol borders area in a direction outside the symbol, the head-label disappears slowly.
b.) Inside the symbol the mouse hover decreases in slow motion the visibility of the underlying composition of head and body. Now:
o The hover can be stopped at a desired level of transparency by clicking the left mouse button on the symbol during the process of hovering. The Vidi window can, subsequently, be moved to the desired position on the desktop, thus observing the underlying windows simultaneously during repositioning.
What for: to reposition Vidi window at the most appropriate position on the display.
o The hover is cancelled moving the mouse position outside the symbol area, the symbol is remaining in its original state.
What for: For briefly looking or checking the Vidi window content and hiding it to save space for the main working window, and performing minimum interaction overhead.
o Moving the mouse pointer into the head or body area during the hovering process, the hover shows immediately the final transparency of the Vidi window and head and/or the body remains visible as long as the mouse is positioned inside the entire composition (symbol, head and body).
What for: for brief working with Vidi window content and hiding it, subsequently, with a minimum of interaction overhead.
Remark: Right clicking on the hovered Vidi window title or borders remains unchanged as described in Switching between visibility modes
