There was a problem hiding this comment.
Alternatively we could accommodate blank titles and use the description text instead...

I was hoping to come up with a clean, general solution that works in all cases for this one but there are a few cases that require special treatment - usually when the
MouseAreafor aStyledTextLabeloverlaps with anotherMouseAreaunderneath.FlatButtonsare an example of this - allowing theStyledTextLabelto accept hover events here would result in it intercepting hover events for the button underneath (where we have theHOVEREDstate). So in this case you would need to integrate the "truncation" logic with the existingMouseArealogic for the button. The buttons in the sound flag popup actually add another layer of complexity since they supply their ownStyledTextLabelsthroughcontentItem. As a result, there isn't really a satisfying way to have theFlatButtonevaluate whether the text is truncated and perform the necessary tooltip logic.The solution for the sound flag popup proposed in this PR is quite simple - once the
contentItemis completed we'll set the button's tooltip title (if truncated). For most other cases we can use the newdisplayTruncatedTextOnHoverproperty. As mentioned previously, we should be careful not to steal hover events withStyledTextLabels. For this reason, the default value for this property is false - we can set it to true on a case-by-case basis.Important: 0657c25 is purely for testing purposes. It should be dropped from this PR before merging.
