Bug Description

The tooltip for some reason is coloured, making it really difficult to read when your OS's tooltips are on a black background by default. The text colour should stay default.

Attached is a screenshot demonstrating the problem.

It seems to me that the tool tip for the Exit to RoomID QTextEdits' take on the colouring applied to the text being displayed in that widget. Not sure if there is a consistent way to find out the background that the tool-tip is over to ensure it contrasts sufficiently.

It is caused by the "Cascading" nature of the CSS that Qt is emulating - by default using the setStyleSheet() method on the line edits used to hold the exit to room id numbers to colour them is being carried down to their child elements which includes the tooltips. I have found the fix is to be explicit when using this method to ensure it only is applied to the parent element (the QLineEdit).
