It was for this reason that we changed the text for Plasma 6.4 to make it clear *which* tooltips it disables. It's not a systemwide "disable all tooltips" feature. That was definitely not clear!

It's not a systemwide "disable all > tooltips" feature. That was definitely not clear! Where would I disable tooltips for Application Launcher (Kickoff)? For this specific use case, Kickoff settings > Show applications as > Name Only. If this setting isn't actually suppressing the descriptions on the Favorites page (or anywhere else?) then that's a bug that should be fixed. Can you open a new bug report about that specifically?

SUMMARY Tooltips are displayed whenever I hover my mouse over items in the Application Launcher (Kickoff), but I have them *disabled* under System Settings > General Behavior STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Disable tooltips under System Settings > General Behavior 2. Open the Application Launcher (Kickoff) and hover your mouse over items OBSERVED RESULT Tooltips ("descriptions") are displayed when hovering with the mouse over menu items. EXPECTED RESULT No tooltips should display upon mouse hover. Shouldn't matter if a menu item has a long "description" or not. ADDITIONAL INFO What seems to be happening is that Kickoff still wants to display a menu item's "description" if it's not short enough to fit in the viewable space. Short descriptions do not trigger a tooltip to appear. Long descriptions will appear as a tooltip. If you disable description's ("Name only") in the Kickoff settings, then *all* items with a description will trigger a tooltip, even if the description is "short".
