Make links always show on hover #24

Closed Ooglogput closed 10 years ago

I have my messages set to clear after 3 seconds, but a lot of the time this isn't enough while hovering over links. I think it's pretty reasonable that links shouldn't clear until you move the mouse away from the link (plus clear time, maybe). Possibly a setting to toggle this, although I can't foresee any problems with making it default behaviour.

The behavior you request should be the current behavior of S4E. It will always show hovered links for as long as they remain hovered. The status timeout only applies to status messages (browser/page/extension messages), and does not impact network messages or hovered links.

If you are seeing otherwise, then I would guess you have another Add-on that is interfering.

I checked it out again, and it seems the problem is that if there's already a status message displayed when you hover a link, the message from the link clears when the status message would. 2014-06-29_13-29-45
