SUMMARY

When I hover the mouse over files, sometimes a tooltip window will show up for a split second but with a "Dolphin" window frame and in the wrong location. I haven't managed to screenshot it since it's so quick, and sadly I can't currently do a screen recording due to some unrelated bug. The tooltip seems to contain the file name inside the window's inner area, and the window is thin and wide, just enough to fit the tooltip, and has a default styling decorated titlebar that says "Dolphin". It shows up for just a few frames or such, before it disappears again.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE

1.  Hover over a few files with the mouse cursor.
2.  Sometimes, the window in question pops up in the center of the screen, on top of the regular Dolphin file manager window.

OBSERVED RESULT

Weird broken window that seems to be a tooltip gone wrong shows up for a split second.

EXPECTED RESULT

No tooltip gone wrong shows up.
