As far as truncated names/info in a filelist, I would agree.

OTOH, pop-ups that expand the biography and lyrics (which are also currently included under tooltips) I imagine some users might prefer those do not pop up.  Not me though, I want all the pop-ups except for the button tooltips.

SkGe:
@Matt. If we talk about tooltip can we have an option to hide stack items in tooltip?

Changed: Truncation tooltips no longer honor the setting for tooltips, but instead always show.

There are times that I want to read a larger field like Artist Bio or Album Review by hoovering over the file.  With Tooltips on it comes over the top of the display information for those larger fields.  See example where the bio is lower left but "over written" by tooltips.

Yes! that was exactly the point I was trying to make here:


--- Quote from: HPBEME on May 16, 2023, 08:47:22 pm ---To improve this functionality, there needs to be a 3rd category of "pop-ups" for things like the artist bio popup when hovering over that tag in the tag window, or to display the full track title when it is cut off by the column width - these items are most definitely not "tooltips".  After all, things like biography and lyrics ARE explicitly "track related info", so why MC groups these with tooltip popups (and thus get turned off along with tooltips) makes no sense to me.

Currently, the tag window's large field pop-ups are coupled with button function tooltips, so if you turn off those tooltips it turns off the large tag window pop-up. However, biography and lyrics are clearly track info, so if it is to be turned on and off with anything, it should be with the track info... or create a 3rd category of pop-ups as I noted above.

What about a standard tooltip pop up that allowed you to use the scroll button on your mouse.  That would solve the problem - I believe
