[Bug 177327] New: long tooltips are cut in metadata panel

http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=177327

           Summary: long tooltips are cut in metadata panel
           Product: digikam
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Compiled Sources
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Metadata
        AssignedTo: [hidden email]
        ReportedBy: [hidden email]


Version:            (using Devel)
Compiler:          gcc4.3.2
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Compiled sources

Long tooltips in metadata panel are cut short not displaying its content fully.

Also display of those links in one long line isn't user friendly for various
reasons (eg. hard to follow, may obscure material outside of main window).

If it is possible to use just multiline elements in panel - not just one line
cut very quickly - would be great. Of course it would be not possible to fit
whole caption from attached screenshot but cutting it after 12 characters is a
bit extreme.

Tooltips are now multiline - easier to read, thanks - but still doesn't display
whole content of caption: cut after 128 character.

Mik,

Without to cut to 128, you can explode screen with a big tool tip size.

If you want to find the right value to cut adjust the values set here :

http://lxr.kde.org/source/extragear/graphics/digikam/libs/widgets/metadata/metadatalistviewitem.cpp#053

http://lxr.kde.org/source/extragear/graphics/digikam/libs/widgets/metadata/metadatalistviewitem.cpp#055

... and let's me hear which value is fine for you...

Gilles

512 characters should be enough for everybody ;)
