nil

Documentation

If non-nil, using the echo area for tooltips will resize the echo area.

By default, when the echo area is used for displaying tooltips, the tooltip text is truncated if it exceeds a single screen line. When this variable is non-nil, the text is not truncated; instead, the echo area is resized as needed to accommodate the full text of the tooltip. This variable has effect only on GUI frames.

This variable was added, or its default value changed, in Emacs 27.1.

Probably introduced at or before Emacs version 27.1.
