    preview when passing over a thread timer

     
    When you pass the mouse pointer over a thread a preview bubble pops up. Is there anyway to increase the timer on that. Perhaps double it.

    Give a slow readin fellar a break!

    That was a problem for me also.
    I just tried it and it stays up as long as, i don't move the mouse.
    Did they fix it already?



    Edit
    Must be a browser setting, as Explorer, stills only shows for a couple of seconds.
    Firefox 12.0 in Linux,and 11.0 in 7, and XP, stays on indefinitely

    It stays there indefinitely for me too using Firefox 3.6.13 I use Noscript so it might be blocking a script to shut it down, but I doubt it.

    AFAIK this is just an on-mouseover event and there isn't a timer on it. The dialog should remain as long as your mouse is hovered over the cell or the link. If it times out its probably something with each specific browser, I've only noticed it timing out with IE.

    Just to confirm what others have said, seems to be an IE issue.

    Fine on Chrome, FF on Win 7. However latest build of IE has the issue.
    Main PC: AMD FX-8350 / 16gb DDR3 1600 / AMD 7970GE 1200mhz Core & 1600mhz Mem / Win7 Pro 64bit
    File Server: AMD Opteron 180 / 3gb DDR400 / Nvidia 6200 / WinXP Home 32bit / Lubuntu 12.10
    Laptop: HP-Compaq nc8430/ Intel CoreDuo T2400 / 2gb DDR2 667/ Ati x1600 / WinXP Pro 32bit

    I had it disappear after a few seconds on an older version of Firefox from a year or so ago, but in the last year, it stays there until you move the mouse off it, same with Chrome.

    Only an issue in the inferior browser, as far as I can see... Tested in FF, Chrome and IE (well, IETab) and as long as you don't move your mouse, then that mouseover box will stay there....
    I've seen the light... It was green, flashy and attached to a Network Interface Card...
    Whenever someone says "You can't miss it", I invariably do...

    It appears as if not moving the mouse does not help me with IE.

    it disappears within 6 seconds.

    Ditto - IE9 it goes away in about six seconds.

    Food for thought-> Click the darn link
