    Hi, I hope this is the right place to ask.

    When hovering over a function in QtCreator, it shows a description in one line.
    Can it accept a table like 1) 2) 3) on their own rows?:

    /*!
        \fn function
        1) Does stuff
        2) Does more stuff
        3) Does some more stuff
    
     * @param A parameter.
     * @return a value
     */
    

    It always shows in one line only

      Hi @damianatorrpm,

      yes, the tooltip shows the summary (first line) only. I'm not aware of a way to change that.

      Regards

      Qt has to stay free or it will die.
