Description not visible when I hover over labels.

[MartijnMaandag]

Steps to reproduce the issue

I can't imagine nobody saw this before. Maybe this is double, then sorry (can't find an issue).

Go to (By example) Users and select a User.
If you hover a label there is no description visible. Tried in Chrome, Firefox and Edge.
This in on every detail screen.

Expected result

Actual result

System information (as much as possible)

This is intentional. Please see PR #22165.

[brianteeman]

There is no description on hover because there is no description to display.

Closing as intentional.
Please, if you see a place where we do need descriptions if the label is not enough, as we did here #30440 , create a new issue.

I do understand and support the accessibility issue from @brianteeman #22165
We now have a large number of descriptions that are no longer used, but are still present in the language files and need to be translated and approved.
I understand that @infograf768 has now made the description visible for one case #30440.
I am not technical, but is it possible to make this solution general and use @infograf768 's solution wherever the hover was shown in Joomla 3.x?
If we don't need the description, we can delete the languagestring.

@MartijnMaandag
To the best of my knowledge there are no descriptions that are not used
To the best of my knowledge where there is a description it is displayed on screen and not as a hover/tooltip

Please can you let me know the details of any description that is still present and is not displayed on the screen as that is definitely a bug and should not happen.

I understand that @infograf768 has now made the description visible for one case #30440.

This was done by adding the string and not "making it visible"

I am not technical, but is it possible to make this solution general and use @infograf768 's solution wherever the hover was shown in Joomla 3.x?

That already exists. Any description is displayed on screen

If we don't need the description, we can delete the languagestring.

They should already be deleted - I deleted thousands

Are you using an update language file?

[MartijnMaandag]

You are completely right. I found the tooltip in Joomla 3.x very useful for inexperienced users and missed them in Joomla 4. I just thought they weren't shown anymore. A solution as I mentioned would have been more beautifull.

@MartijnMaandag
As you use crowdin, the deleted description strings are no more present and therefore do not need to be approved.

As I said above, many of these descriptions were redundant with the label.
If you miss really an important one, please let it know.
