Can't see the __doc__ string hovering a script name anymore

Scripting
1

Hi,
I can’t get the __doc__ string from scripts while hovering anymore. It happens both for Glyphs 2 and 3, so I assume it has to do with the OS version.
Is it possible to get it working back? It’s a great feature.
I’m using MacOS Big Sur 11.5.1 (20G80)

Thanks!

Works for me even on Big Sur.

Right. I rebooted the computer and it’s working back.
Thanks.

I’ve been digging around still with this and one thing I found is that the __doc__ string is not parsed if # -*- coding: utf-8 -*- is not present in the second line.
Could this be fixed? UTF-8 is default in Python 3 and IMHO this should be no longer needed.

Thanks.

It works for me without the utf-8 line. can you send me one of the scripts that refuse to show the tooltip?

Sure.
