Show tooltip with "if" condition when hovering over "else"

Could not find anything via search, no idea if PyCharm can do that already and I did not find it, or if it's a feature request.

 

What I want:

- I mouseover an "else" or "elif" and the tooltip shows me the "if" condition for that "else".

Possible?

 

Even better solution:

- Tooltip shows me every branch condition for that "if", each in in one line. Tooltip example: First line: "if x > 5"; Second line: "elif x = 2; Third line: "else". Each one clickable to link to the correct line.

 

Situation this is useful for:

- Having code with an "if", maybe some "elif" and an "else".

- The code inside the "if" has more lines than the screen shows - or in general my solution is much quicker since you don't have to search for the relevant "if" manually.

- Want to read the code and quickly inspect when the "else" is actually triggered/what it belongs to.

 

Thank you.
