[Bug] Anchor hover tooltip disappears instantly when anchor lines are consecutive, making click selection impossible #5313

Closed

Description

Description

Detailed Phenomenon: When the mouse hovers over a row with an anchor, the bottom pop-up jump window will quickly disappear when encountering multiple consecutive rows of anchors (for example, the first 5 rows are all anchors).
Actual Impact: Users cannot select the target anchor through the usual mouse hover and click method. They are forced to use the "Ctrl + Mouse Left Button" combination key to perform the jump, which seriously affects the operation experience.

Steps to Reproduce

1.Open a Markdown file containing multiple consecutive lines with anchors (e.g., 5+ adjacent heading/anchor lines).
2.Move the mouse cursor over one of the anchor lines to trigger the bottom jump tooltip.
3.Attempt to move the cursor toward the tooltip to click it.
4.Observe that the tooltip vanishes immediately before it can be clicked.

Expected Behavior

The hover tooltip should remain visible and stable as long as the cursor is within the valid hover zone of the anchor line or the tooltip itself, allowing the user sufficient time to click and navigate.

Actual Behavior

When anchor lines are densely stacked, the tooltip flickers and disappears almost instantly upon appearing. This prevents users from selecting the link via mouse interaction. Currently, the only functional workaround is using Ctrl + Click directly on the anchor text.
