Public bug reported:
When holding my cursor still over a folder in the visualization (in
either mode) I expect the name and size of the folder to appear in a
floating box, as well as the names the folders contained in it.
In my brand new install of Ubuntu 18.04, however, this does not happen most of
the time. When holding my cursor over a folder, it «lights up» as usual, but
after a second or two, it gets darker again, and nothing appears.
However, it sometimes does work for certain folders. Based on a small amount of
testing, those folders seem to be close to 8 or 9 o'clock when using the pie
chart mode, and mostly only folders at the bottom of the hierarchy. I can then
move the cursor within the visualization and see the names of all the folders
as usual. But if the cursor is outside any folder for some small amount of
time, I have to «activate» it again by holding the cursor over a working folder
again.
The behavior is quite strange and unpredictable, and I have no idea what
is causing it or what to do about it. But I thought I would report it
here as it makes it very difficult for me to use this application. I am
happy to answer any questions.
