Tested on 2014-01-16 using latest nightly. When you install and run the nightly for the first time in Metro mode you get the Start page which has some hints on how to use its elements. However the hints and arrows don't quite match.

It's a minor thing, but I would expect an arrow to originate from a hint and point to the element. Right now some arrows originate from empty space. See for example the arrow corresponding to the hint: "Go to the sites you visit the most."

Also you can see a cut-off hint on the right side "See where you " which doesn't feel right.

This is as designed in bug 941284, so it's up to mmaslaney whether we want to change this.

I see your point, but the close proximity between the arrow and it's following hint creates a clear grouping of information.


The cut-off was intentional, as to create a "hint" that there is more for you to see.
