VA fails to highlight tooltips when content to show exceeds its maximal bounds:

For example:
/*------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| NAME:					fooBase
| AUTHOR:				aaa
| DATE:					bbb	
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------*/
class fooBase
{
public:
  virtual bool fooMethod() { return true; }
  virtual ~fooBase() {}
};




However, when I shorten last line of comment it works:
/*------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| NAME:					fooBase
| AUTHOR:				aaa
| DATE:					bbb	
------------------------------------------------*/
class fooBase
{
public:
  virtual bool fooMethod() { return true; }
  virtual ~fooBase() {}
};




Similar issue is when name of class or of class it is derived from is too long:



Seems that there is any exception that stops overpainting process.

I am seeing the same effect here with the long comment on the class, thank you for the clear description.

case=79981

but I cannot reproduce the problem with the long class name. Testing VS2008 and VA 2023, my class name is 184 characters long, and the tooltip is still coloured correctly.

Which IDE and version of VA are you using?
