JabRef version

5.15 (latest release, snap-Version)

Operating system

GNU / Linux

Details on version and operating system

Operating System: Kubuntu 22.04 KDE Plasma Version: 5.24.7 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.92.0 Qt Version: 5.15.3 Kernel Version: 6.5.0-41-generic (64-bit) Graphics Platform: X11 Processors: 8 × 11th Gen Intel® Core™ i7-1185G7 @ 3.00GHz Memory: 15,3 GiB of RAM Graphics Processor: Mesa Intel® Xe Graphics,

Checked with the latest development build (copy version output from About dialog)

  • [X] I made a backup of my libraries before testing the latest development version.
  • [X] I have tested the latest development version and the problem persists

Steps to reproduce the behaviour

  1. Load a bibtex file with some groups with description and with some groups without description, e.g. the attached bibtex-file
  2. Open the Group interface
  3. Move the mouse pointer above the group names and wait for the tooltip to show up. Then, at least some times it holds for groups without description e.g. the Test group 2 without description in the attached file that the description of some other group is shown. This can also be a description from some other bibtex file that has been shown before. Here a screen shot generated with the mouse pointer at group 2: Screenshot_Groups_tooltip

P.S.: I lied when I clicked the I have tested the latest development version and the problem persists box above, since I need my jabref installation for my work and to not dare to risk it by playing around with your latest development version since that may create temporary files somewhere or may do other thinks that may cause problems afterwards if I start JabRef 5.15 again. But, after I spotted this error already in 2023, I decided now to ignore your demotivation for reporting bugs.
