Created attachment 148458 [details] Screenshot giving an example in the Composer configuration dialog Hello devs, I am currently reviewing the German translation of kmail and came across a lot of tooltip strings that use manual linebreaks (\n). Looking at my running instance, those linebreaks cause what was called "combing" in the newsgroup days: in addition to the manual breaks, lines were also auto-wrapped by the tooltip frame, which causes alternating long and short lines of text. So my question is: are those breaks intentional, are they an oversight, or is this “historical ballast” dating from a time when tooltips did not auto-wrapp at all? I propose disposing of those breaks and let the system choose.
