Description conor.eager 2025-11-03 07:13:43 UTC 
SUMMARY
Hovering over a torrent that has a large magnet link means the tooltip extends off the screen, making it impossible to see the status information (which is quite useful to explain the colours, without opening settings every time).

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Load a torrent with a large magnet link
2. Hover over the torrent in the list

OBSERVED RESULT
Tooltip extends off the screen, meaning the status information in the tooltip cannot be seen.

EXPECTED RESULT
The magnet URI should be truncated/ellipsized to a maximum number of characters, to ensure that it always fits on screen. The full URL is already accessible through the context menu > Advanced > Copy Torrent URL, and you couldn't copy it from the tooltip anyway, so not showing the full thing in the tooltip shouldn't be too much of a feature loss.
