Hovering over a QML color fails to display the preview

XMLWordPrintable

    • macOS, Windows

      Steps to reproduce:

      • open the attached project. It is the default CMake QML project with 2 color QML properties.
      • open `Main.qml`
      • hover both colors

      Result: a tooltip containing "Expression too complex" pops up.

      It fails for hex colors and named colors. I do not remember if it worked for expressions like `Qt.rgba(...)`.
