As per image bellow, when the preview is higher than the avalaible space underneath the code being hovered by the mouse, it will overlay upward. This is not per say a problem, except that the overlay is ALWAYS under the mouse cursor. Preventing any manner of selecting the code.

This requires the user to scroll until there is enough room underneath the code to display the whole tooltip. When this height of the window is not enough, then the code cannot be selected in any way with the cursor and has to be done using the keyboard.

This happens, for me anyway, only in Javascript. As I have not been hable to find an option to disable this feature, which I do not need, I am stuck struggling with selecting part of the code with the mouse cursor on a number of occasion.

Best fix possible: Moving the tool tip outside of the cursor area as to not interfer with the user.

    Also, just noticed... The Quick Tips is not properly translated: "7 more".

    :p
