Description Martin Entlicher 2016-06-02 14:14:39 UTC

Debugger tooltips that can be pinned as pin watches should respond to keyboard shortcuts so that it's not necessary to navigate with mouse to appropriate icons and risk that the tooltip will disappear while the mouse exits the tooltip area.

There can be "SPACE" as a shortcut to expand tooltips into a detailed view
and "ENTER" shortcut to pin the tooltip as a pin watch.

These shortcuts are valid while to tooltip is visible.

The shortcuts will be made available on all tooltips created by the new API in task #262312.

FYI: This change has caused a regression in editor.lib, which is described and fixed by issue #262339.
