When browsing the compendium content there are several areas that offer a pop-up box with information (such as spell descriptions/stats) when you hover the mouse cursor over them. It doesn't appear that these same mouse-over boxes are active when viewing similar content in the character creator. The specific example I encountered was with the spells listed for different Divine Domains in the Cleric class.
Awesome, thanks for the reply! Personally I would be all for as much cross referencing as possible through links (similar to how pages are referenced on Wikipedia). I know I learn a TON reading things on Wikipedia by following links to words or topics I'm unfamiliar with. It would be great to apply that same methodology to DnD. The mouse-over pop-ups are even better since you don't have to leave the original page (the Wikipedia mobile app will show a preview of the article with the first paragraph or so after clicking the link which is usually enough to get an idea without actually leaving the article you were originally reading). Thanks again!

D&D Beyond FoundersThanks for mentioning this.
Once the new character sheet and associated changes are live, we'll take a pass through the creation system and check for stuff like this. :)
