Tips for clipped items

Code: Select all
+ Configuration | File Info Tips: added option "Show tips for
clipped tree and list items" (aka "in-place tooltips").
Will display a tooltip with the full item name when hovering an
item with a partly clipped name.
In case of the file list, these tips will only appear when the
other sorts of tips (file info tips, mp3 info tips) do not.
The tips are hard-coded to an initial delay of 200 ms and vanish
after 3 seconds.
this is pretty cool, and since I got my tips to show only over icon it's just great for me

I just wish it'd work for the Path column aswell, on search results. Thats for me the place where paths are clipped the most (with tab header, but no tooltip issue there

)

For the Path column...hmhm... what about this: optionally show fullpath/file in the cliptip? Then you can do even without the path column

EDIT: nonsense

... need to check whether path is clipped... okay, somewhen later... now enjoy what you got.

Yeah, how about those tooltips for when the Path is not fully shown now ? It would be really cool methinks, right now it's either guess, break the layout and enlarge column, or use the slow regular tooptip that grabs all kind of useless info when all I'm looking for is the full path...
