Description Dominique Emond CLA 2009-07-08 12:14:04 EDT 
Build ID: M20090211-1700

Steps To Reproduce:
1. Create a marker in the Problems view which has a long 
   message
2. Hover the mouse over the warning or error in the problems 
   view
3. The tooltip yellow rectangle shows a truncated 
   portion of your message on one line instead of wrapping the complete message onto several lines.

This forces the user to open the Properties dialog for the
marker, and go into the read-only text field, and move the cursor across to read the whole message.

What you are seeing is the native hover tooltip (i.e. this is just how the OS deals with clipped text in table cells).

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
