N20100422-2133 When you click a link in a persisted Javadoc hover, the new content can be much bigger than the original hover. But the persisted hover keeps the size of the original hover, so the user often has to resize the hover after following a link. The Javadoc hover should calculate the required size of the hover with the new contents and enlarge the hover if necessary (using the same constraints as for the initial hover, and never making the hover smaller).
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. -- The automated Eclipse Genie.
