Description

Discussed in https://github.com/p0deje/Maccy/discussions/1135

Originally posted by Paul-Huntsberry July 21, 2025 I would like to see a new feature that displays the dimensions of an image in pixels that has been copied when you hover over the preview image such as 500x300. This would be helpful for graphic and web designers.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Explore the Maccy codebase to locate the image preview view (likely in 'ImagePreviewView.swift' or similar). Investigate how the app currently displays images and adds tooltips. Implement logic to extract image dimensions using NSImage's size property and display them in a tooltip or overlay on hover. Look at existing tooltip implementations in the project for guidance.
