    Description

      A couple of tooltips in Qt Creator, contain rich text (HTML). These tooltips tend to have line breaks in unfavorable places, making the content sometimes hard to read.

      Modes, Pane buttons:

      Compiler ABI:

      Variable chooser:

      Another issue with some tooltips is that they show key/value definitions in a <table>, wich, especially with longer keys makes looking up the value quite hard. Also the length of the key column is dependent on the (translated) content.
      A better alternative is to use "description lists" <dl>, which indent the values nicely independent from the key length.

      Kits:

      Qt Versions:
