GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 305936
Enable tooltips for long content in fields
Last modified: 2013-09-10 14:04:09 UTC
As an example, when viewing the list of email received, if the content of a field (say the From field) is too long, it gets cut off with "..." added at the end. The only way to view the full contents is to either widen the column, or click on the message and see the field in the preview pane. My feature request is to add tooltips so that if you hover the mouse over the field you see a tooltip with the full content of the field.
This is a good feature. Confirming and setting the target milestone as 'future'
I think this is a related wish: I would suggest to add a tool-tip for the field titles and flags. So give a hint what the "exclamation mark" and the "flag", the attachment symbol, the message status mean.
