Mouse Pointer Hand - No text - is this correct?

[Treetops45 1,082]

When I hover the Mouse Pointer over switches & controls in the Cockpit, it turns into a 'hand' shape, indicating a 'live' control, but there is no descriptor text  identifying the switch or control.

Is this how it should be, or should I see wording?

That's normally linked to something called "Tool Tips", an option to display/hide  them in P3D or FSX. It applies to all aircraft.

For learning, you want them ON. For Performance, you'd want them OFF.

Check your P3D settings.

P3D settings checked & ToolTips box is ticked. Other aircraft Tool tips are showing up.

You are seeing Tool Tips ok in your MD 80?

This is correct. They are not modeled in this aircraft.

Best wishes.
