[wsjt-devel] Mac tool tip box too small

2018-11-30 Thread Bill Frantz
I noticed running 2.0 rc5 that the text box the tool tips are placed in is too small on Mac OS 10.14.1. One place this shows up is hovering over "Hold TX Freq". I have also noticed the same problem on earlier versions of wsjt-x and MacOS. The result is that to end of the tool tip isn't visible.
