Title bar's title to be shown when hovering title bar's Opus icon

In 13.6.4 (Beta) the Move top-row toolbars into the window title bar option was introduced. This looks great and remains functional (if you make sure to leave some blank spaces to be able to drag the window).

The sacrifice here is that we can no longer see the title bar's title text. What does remain is Directory Opus' title bar icon in the top-left. What if on-hover the icon would reveal the title text? I use the title bar to know if the current path is a junction / softlink (%G). Still having access to this information relatively quickly would be useful. Undoubtedly, there is another way to access this information, but this is what I'm used to.

Thanks.

You could add lister_title to one of your buttons like this:

Nice. A simple solution. Although, I still think it could make sense for the Opus icon to show the now hidden title when this new option is enabled. I can live with adding =lister_title to the File menu's description.

Thanks!

We'll add this in the next update. Thanks for the suggestion!

One small problem: I occasionally click the upper left corner to focus the window, and then I might click the Opus icon to trigger the menu. Changing to right-click to trigger the menu, or an adjustment may be better.
Or change my habits. :slightly_smiling_face:

Thanks for the implementation. It appears it's slightly buggy however. The tooltip lingers on screen after moving the cursor away from the icon, covering the toolbar. Only when the cursor leaves (or sometimes it must re-enter) Opus' window frame does the tooltip close by itself.

I think the hover tip should be closed when the cursor leaves the icon.

The hover title seems to be on a seven second delay if the mouse is moved over Opus and no delay if the mouse is moved over the desktop.

Definitely looking better !
I think I may have changed my mind about this.
I also like being able to move the window from any toolbar.
