Coach marks can either appear automatically, for example, when users visit a page for the first time or when a new feature is added, or in response to an action, like activating an info icon.
Informational: This calls attention to a section on the page. (If there is too much informational text to add below a field, it is better to use a coach mark.)
A coach mark points to the targeted UI element on the page. It displays a title, description and either a dismissal link or ‘X’ icon. Once the coach mark is dismissed, it will not appear again.
Instructional: It provides short, task-oriented tips. That helps the user to make better choice. Like in Adobe softwares while using a specific tool.
