Error description

  • When using the IBM ClearCase GUI version tree browser on
Windows, hovering over a version with an over-long comment or
other metadata will cause the tooltip to flash on the screen.

One example would be a directory that was checked in after
adding a large number of files to source control. In that case,
the default checkin comment would read:
"Added element 'file1.txt'
 Added element 'file2.txt'
 ...
 Added element 'file100.txt'"

If the number of lines in the comment would cause the tooltip to
be taller than the screen, the tooltip will rapidly appear and
disappear.
