Version: 2.4 (using KDE 4.4.4) OS: Linux If a file name is too long to be displayed entirely in the main view, an overlay pops up which displays the full name when the mouse hovers over the image. So far, so good. But what becomes annoying after a short time is that the label is quite slowly lagging behind the mouse pointer when I move around over several images. I’d like to ask for an option to either remove that behavior, or to disable that overlay altogether, because 1) if I want to read what it says, I need to wait for the animation to finish and 2) the moving label distracts the eye from what’s actually important. Since I know of no other KDE app with that feature, I assume it’s a Gwenview-own functionality. Thanks for your consideration. Reproducible: Always
Instead of disabling the animation, it should just display correctly and not lag the cursor.
This was caused by a 500ms delay being added to the fade-out animation every time you hovered over another thumbnail. I've fixed this in the following revision: https://phabricator.kde.org/D10704
Git commit aa368aea25ba663a18d6f0cc45e5db89bcc38497 by Henrik Fehlauer, on behalf of Huon Imberger. Committed on 22/02/2018 at 13:35. Pushed by rkflx into branch 'Applications/17.12'. Improve thumbnail tooltip animation Summary: This fixes a cosmetic issue where the tooltip got 'stuck' as long as you kept moving your mouse around. The trade-off is it more often than not fades out quicker than it did before, but I believe this isn't a problem. This prevents the tooltip fade-out animation getting the 500ms delay unless the current animation is not running. Therefore preventing the animation perpetually gaining a delay if moving the mouse over thumbnails fast enough. ## Before: {F5720935, loop, autoplay} ## After: {F5720936, loop, autoplay} Reviewers: #gwenview, rkflx Reviewed By: #gwenview, rkflx Subscribers: rkflx Differential Revision: https://phabricator.kde.org/D10704 M +3 -1 lib/thumbnailview/previewitemdelegate.cpp https://commits.kde.org/gwenview/aa368aea25ba663a18d6f0cc45e5db89bcc38497
