Is there anywhere a list of "good" hints for tags in Workspace

[LaurentG]

A great idea in workspace is the "hint" to remind the form of value to input.
I initially thought that these "hints" were proposed directly by ExifToolGUI when adding a nw tag in the WorkSpace.... but I unfortunately discovered it is not the case.... and the hint has to be entered manually.

Nevertheless, in my current parameters, I have a hint for the tag Exif:GPSAltitudeRef that says "+ = Above Sea Level  - = Below Sea Level"

I am 100% sure I never entered myself such a hint (100% sure, except if Mr Alzheimer is playing with me...)

Where could this "hint" come from ? Is there anywhere in ExifTool landscape a kind of "database" of suggested hints for all tags that have a "non obvious" way of input ? I had a look in the ExifTool/TagNames table, but what is written about conversion between internal value and displayed value couldn't lead to such a hint.
So, any idea about where could this "hint" come from in my current .ini file ?

Hi Laurent,

Good question.

The only time GUI adds hints automatically, is when no usable INI file is found. But the hint 'Above/Below Sea level' is never added.

I have no idea where the hint you see comes from.
