incorrect node tooltips

Question

Nodes descriptions that contain angle brackets are not displayed properly as tooltips. Open a new graph, create a node, and then on the Properties view, Data, Description enter a<b>c. Then place the pointer over the node and see the tooltip: ac. I.e. what is in angle brackets is not rendered.

Answer 1

Thanks for pointing out this issue. It seems that the description is always interpreted as HTML, even without surrounding HTML tags. As a work-around, you can replace each opening bracket '<' by the corresponding HTML entity &lt;.
