Where do you hover on the variable? The picture you sent looks like
a tooltip in the Locals&Watchers view, is that where you got it?

There is an option in the settings to enable tooltips when hovering
over variables in the text. But that did not work well until very
recently (read "today noon"), so it is switched off by default.

With a really recent build from git master (which, unfortunately, means
it will not be in 1.2) it should work fine, though.
