SUMMARY The more experienced KDE users probably understand, what the tooltip 'Keep above' is meant for. Still, even for seasoned users, this sounds a little bit too generalized. The tooltip, that appears when you hover over the title bar button, that keeps windows over the others, is sparse, and can lead to additional confusion, since it can be read in activated state, and then suggests doing the opposite of what it truly does. Let`s improve this. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Add a "keep above" title button to the title bar. 2. Hover over the button. 3. Activate it, and hover again over the button, assuming you are a user, who is just figuring out, what this button does. OBSERVED RESULT Confusion EXPECTED RESULT Clarity ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Operating System: KaOS (2021) KDE Plasma Version: 5.21.3 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.80.0 Qt Version: 5.15.2 SUGGESTION I suggest the following sentence as a replacement for the current one's; Keep this window always above others. Do not keep this window above others.
