Tooltip issues with Text Objects

Panorama X

The ToolTip feature does not work very well with Text Objects, (Editor, Display or Labels).

If you hover on top of one of these objects, you need to stop moving the cursor immediately, otherwise the ToolTip text disappears.

With other kind of objects, you can keep moving the cursor as long as it doesn’t exit the object and the ToolTip remains visible.

Anyone else experiencing this problem?
Tested in Mojave and Monterey.

Yes, I see that also. It’s not clear to me whether or not other types of objects work the same.

In any case, the tooltip logic is built into macOS. If you want it to work differently, you’ll need to contact Apple.

I can see some logic to Apple’s thinking here. The tooltip could get in the way of editing the text. So I suspect this behavior is intentional.
