Re: Automatic line wrap in tooltip of checkbox in dialog

[Heiko Tietze]

Text wrapping depends on the OS/DE, AFAIK. There was an issue on Qt-based systems that has been fixed for 25.2, see https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=162297 (and it works nicely with your strings)

If you want to force a line break, \n comes in handy. But I suggest to not mess with the OS/DE algorithms.

Hi all,





The tooltip is set in sortoptionspage.ui on checkbox "naturalsort" with
  <property name="has-tooltip">True</property>
  <property name="tooltip-text" ...>For numbers...</property>

Kind regards,
Regina

the sort dialog has a checkbock "Recognize numbers within strings" on tab page "Options". (You need a build from current master). It has a very long tooltip. If "Extended Tips" is enabled, the tooltip is shown in a suitable rectangle where the text automatically wraps. If "Extended Tips" is disabled, the tooltip is shown in one line and then it is very long. Is it possible to get the automatic wrap too for the case "Extended Tips" is disabled?
