Hovering over output in worksheet not working #71

Closed barshirtcliff closed 2 years ago

barshirtcliff commented 2 years ago

Describe the bug According to this page I should be able to hover over the comment-output generated in a worksheet to see the complete output. This works in other editors, such as IntelliJ and Code. In emacs, however, nothing happens.

To Reproduce

create a worksheet named foo.worksheet.sc anywhere. add a line: val longString = "thisisalongstring" * 10 save the file.

Expected behavior hovering over the comment should reveal the complete string. but nothing shows up.

Screenshots Here's the test output. No new output appears in the *lsp-log* buffer during hover.

This is a more complete representation of a bug identified previously.

Try to hover over the string itself, not over commented part. Emacs doesn't support help messages over added overlays.

Actually it can be done using text property instead of overlay property.
