Description Valentyn Pavliuchenko 2010-04-29 22:25:07 UTC 
Version:           4.0 (using KDE 4.4.2)
Compiler:          4.4.3 20100108 
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Debian testing/unstable Packages

In debugging mode, if you point a mouse on some identifier, two tooltips will pop-up:
1. Code tooltip (same as in "Code" mode), showing information about identifier
2. Debugger tooltip, showing current value and few buttons.

Both tooltips always appear on the same place and it's impossible to see the code tooltip, because debugger tooltip always overlaps it.

So, the code tooltip is useless in debug mode and must be removed.

Code tooltips are not shown during debugging in many popular IDEs.

Fixed, see https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/100840/.

Should this be backported to 4.2?
Comment 2 Milian Wolff 2011-04-03 21:27:02 UTC 
not possible as it adds new API.
