Sliders in game settings render tooltip on top of displayed value

When hovering on some sliders from the game settings/options, such as Distortion Effects, FOV Effects and Darkness Pulsing, they show a tooltip containing said setting description. However, when you click to change the value, the tooltip remains and you can't see the percentage as long as you have the cursor above the slider, unless you hold click and move the cursor off the slider.

Expected behavior
The tooltip would not overlap the slider when changing the value, that way you're able to see what the percentage is.

Observed behavior
The tooltip remains while you are changing the value of these settings, making unable to see what the percentage is unless you unhold click.

If the tooltip's location were moved to be below the cursor, that would eliminate this issue as well.

Should probably be forward resolved as a duplicate of MC-254170, as that one talks about this exact same issue, however it's now resolved as WF.

Not really, that one is mainly about them still being displayed when dragging, this is about them being displayed on top of the value; I do see that it also point that out in that report, but the core of the report is different.
This could be fixed by just moving the tooltip further up/down when the slider is selected instead, not changing MC-254170, but fixing this.

It could also be fixed by having the tooltip have a fixed position above/below the slider when hovering over it (like how tab-selected buttons work).

In 23w05a this is no longer an issue, so i'd say this can now be marked as fixed.

This was an issue in 23w04a but has indeed been fixed in 23w05a.
