[Dolphin] Hide tooltip instantly on key press
ClosedPublic

Details

Summary

Instantly hide tooltip shown over an element when a key is pressed.

Currently, when pressing an alphanum key to select a different file,
the tooltip continues to cover much of the window - often hiding that newly selected file from view.

Thanks for the patch! The fix looks correct, but I have suggestions for the coding style.

src/views/dolphinview.cpp
1427–1435

I don't like this duplicate function. We could just add the bool parameter to DolphinView::hideToolTip().

src/views/tooltips/tooltipmanager.h
59

Please call this parameter hideIstantly. Bonus point if you use an enum instead of a bool ;) (see http://www.informit.com/articles/article.aspx?p=1392524)

Of course a single function was my initial version.
But then I got errors for connect()s:

connect(m_container->horizontalScrollBar(), &QScrollBar::valueChanged, this, &DolphinView::hideToolTip);
connect(m_container->verticalScrollBar(), &QScrollBar::valueChanged, this, &DolphinView::hideToolTip);
error: static assertion failed: Signal and slot arguments are not compatible.

Tried solving this with SLOT(), default argument, separate overloaded function with no arguments.
But to no avail.

It seems that will require QOverload in every connect() call:

connect(m_container->horizontalScrollBar(), &QScrollBar::valueChanged, this, QOverload<>::of(&DolphinView::hideToolTip));
connect(m_container->verticalScrollBar(), &QScrollBar::valueChanged, this, QOverload<>::of(&DolphinView::hideToolTip));

Are you OK with this?

To be precise:
QOverload plus still a separate overloaded DolphinView::hideToolTip() function with no arguments,
which then calls the DolphinView::hideToolTip(...) with the default flag (in .cpp).

Uploaded diff with version using QOverload.

Uploaded (final?) diff with version using duplicated hideToolTip()/hideToolTipInstantly() slots.

We can fix this issue by using a lamba ;)

connect(m_container->horizontalScrollBar(), &QScrollBar::valueChanged, this, [=] {
    hideToolTip();
});
src/views/dolphinview.h
26

Please drop this include from dolphinview.cpp then.

src/views/tooltips/tooltipmanager.cpp
120–123

Coding style: case should not be more indented than switch

src/views/tooltips/tooltipmanager.h
45

I'd call this enum HideBehavior. It's already implied from the ToolTipManager class that we are talking about tooltips.

Have you tried to use this lambda in order to bring back the approach of https://phabricator.kde.org/D22512?id=62021 ? (which I prefer because we avoid to duplicate DolphinView::hideToolTip())
