+3 Since the whole point of these are to give you important information, its pretty useless when the information if off the side of the screen.
I would say that the tool tip's right edge should never go beyond the right edge of the screen, even if it means that the left edge is beyond the left edge of the screen. On the status bar, you can always see the _beginning_ of the message, but not always the end. If the tool-tip window was right-justified, then you would always be able to the _end_ of the message, if not always the beginning. Between the two of them, you should be able to get most of not all of the message. cc Paul Bradshaw wrote: > I swear I remember reading that this feature was in already, but I have yet > to experience it. > > Whenever there's a red highlighted error in my code, if I hover the mouse > cursor over it to see the pop-up explaination of the error, it invariably > scrolls off the right side of the screen (with the important part off the > screen, invisible, of course).
