Created attachment 157149 [details] hover_cut_short SUMMARY Oftentimes, tooltips that appear when hovering the mouse over something will be cut short if they intersect with some button or similar. See attached screenshot for an example. Happens in pretty much every KDE app. STEPS TO REPRODUCE (bug happens rather randomly, might work instantaneously) 1. Launch some KDE app that would have tooltips appearing when hovering the mouse over something. Examples: dolphin, spectacle. 2. Hover the mouse over buttons near the window edges that would trigger a tooltip, or near buttons that are placed close to some widget like "set zoom level" or checkbox-like icons. OBSERVED RESULT Oftentimes, the tooltip is cut. EXPECTED RESULT Tooltip should always appear in full.

> Happens in pretty much every KDE app That's weird because I don't think I've ever seen this happen. Are you using any non-default fonts, font sizes, or other similar settings?
Created attachment 157240 [details] kde_font_settings I am using debian-default fonts (which look different from the ones in your screenshot) with non-default sizes. Attached is a screenshot of the configuration.
Hah, your settings are actually identical to my own. Can you try to find a pattern for which tooltips get cut off and which ones don't? Are the cut-off ones always near the right screen edge? Do you have multiple monitors? Does it reproduce with a new user account?

Are the cut-off > ones always near the right screen edge? Do you have multiple monitors? Does > it reproduce with a new user account? (a) All tooltips in QT apps get cut at random times. (b) No, happens anywhere, including in the middle of the app if they intersect with another button. (c) I have a single monitor. (d) Haven't tried with a different user, but this is a new computer that I set up without carrying any old settings under /home. Every setting I've changed was done manually through the current systemsettings5 app from plasma 5.27.2.

Does the issue still happen if you use a different widget style like Oxygen?
(In reply to Nate Graham from comment #7) > Does the issue still happen if you use a different widget style like Oxygen? You mean application style? It happens with oxygen too.
In that case this is almost certainly a Qt bug. I don't see any other option given how universal it is for you. Feel free to submit a bug report about it to bugreports.qt.io.
