I just installed Maya 2009.  I created new tools for my custom shelf such as “Convert Polygons to subdivisions” The icon is there but the tool tip says something else.  Other icons are also doing this.  I cannot change the tool tip in the editor either.  Suggestions?

Thanks

The tool tip should say the exact same thing that the Help Line would display as well: Select polygon surface(s). If you don’t like what it says, you can change it by editing your shelf_Custom.mel mel script and change the annotation flag to say something else. For example, you could change
