Version: svn (using KDE KDE 3.5.2) Installed from: Slackware Packages OS: Linux have an album with an ampersand in it's name. resize collection tab so that album name does not fit in it, move mouse over album name. tooltip has ampersand as & tooltip in playlist is displaying ampersand correctly.
This looks to me like an underlying problem in the way the KListView renders the tooltip. It works for the playlist because it renders its own custom tooltip.
Cannot reproduce this: collection browser does not show any tooltips at all if it is too narrow for a song.
Created attachment 18432 [details] screenshot of the tooltip as can be seen, tooltip is rendered and has &.
problem still reproducible in svn revision 602464 (kde 3.5.4)
Well, now, the bug works for me, too.
*** Bug 144265 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
This bug still persists in Amarok 1.4.8, KDE 3.5.7
Still present in 1.4.9.1 and tooltips for collection entries are not implemented in 2.x yet.
I am sorry but this will not get fixed in Amarok 1.4 as we are focused on Amarok 2 now. Thank you for your report.
