Tooltips! [Supporters: 4]

GRA0007

What happened to tooltips in Scratch 2.0? (The website) In the old website, hovering over a thumbnail of a project or user icon showed the full name. (If the title was too long and ended in an ellipses)

Please bring this feature back! It's incredibly annoying to load a project page (especially with a slow connection) just to view the title.

Please Support!

In Firefox 31 (on Win 7 Flash 14) inspecting the link and adding title="the full title" to the <a> tag generates the tooltip with the full title.

Adding the title to the text would be enough to solve this and this, imo. It could even be the combined full title and by username.

A multiple line tooltip can be done with  between the lines.

So add title=“Full project name  by scratch user name” to the <a href='''> before the project name text.

Then I won't be clicking through to so many projects just to see the full title.
