Description Antonis G. 2015-04-05 15:06:18 UTC
Applet tooltips are more compact but tooltips of tasks and launchers still use a lot of space.

Reproducible: Always
Comment 1 Kai Uwe Broulik 2015-04-16 16:05:39 UTC
There's a paintedWidth and paintedHeight property on the thumbnail which would allow the tooltip to be more compact, however I think it was decided against resizing the tooltip since that is pretty ugly in an X world.
Comment 2 Eike Hein 2015-04-21 11:05:50 UTC
There was also talk about making tooltips generally deliberately not as cramped - personally I have no real preference.
Comment 3 Kai Uwe Broulik 2016-02-03 21:34:29 UTC
Once the Morphing tooltips effect lands we could perhaps try to adjust the tooltip size according to paintedWidth/size again? You didn't want to resize the dialog because, X, but with the effect it should be less irritating, right?

Should we close this bug report? We're not going to change the design based on a bug report, are we?
Comment 5 Eike Hein 2016-02-08 08:40:43 UTC
I have to see the effect in action first (if it's like the animated window resize I'm not a fan).
Comment 6 Kai Uwe Broulik 2017-02-06 15:20:15 UTC
I guess we can close this now that task manage rtooltips were made much more compact in 5.9
