Description Christian Gebhardt 2007-08-15 22:18:18 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.5.5)
Installed from:    Debian testing/unstable Packages
OS:                Linux

The preview box which appears on mouseover shows text only in one line per field (name, type, etc). If a field like "comment" contains a lot of text the box becomes very wide. 

Mostly the case with EXIF of JPEG-images. E.g. "Picture taken on 9.9.1999 by me at the lovely seaside; GPS coords xx yyy, anytown, anywhere" - this would be one long line.

A feature like the HTML < br >, "break line" or an option "break text after *** pixel" would solve this.
