Appearance of FPS tooltip when adjusting "simulation playing speed" slider interferes with user interaction

[bryce-carson]

The appearance of the FPS tooltip when adjusting the simulation playing speed slider interferes with leftward and rightward mouse interaction; rightward mouse interaction is impeded to a greater degree due to the location of the tooltip, whereas leftward interaction can sometimes avoid the impediment if interaction is quick enough.

Huh, interesting. This is a platform-specific issue; on macOS (my development platform) it works great, I just tested it. Not sure if the problem here is Fedora, or Wayland, or what. We've got a Linux machine in the Messer lab that I can test on. Thanks for the report!
