Quick Help text sometimes does not render

I've had this weird Xcode bug for a while now over several different releases, on multiple machines. My coworker has not seen this issue.

The quick help section sometimes does not render the text:

The text is actually still there; I can highlight it and copy/paste it, which in the above example gives this:

steps
var steps: [CapabilityStep]
ModesEditViewModel.swift
Open in Developer Documentation

Quitting and reopening Xcode seems to fix the issue.

Has anyone else encountered this and know of a prevention method? I can't find another example online of someone mentioning it.

If you Option-click on the term instead of relying on the right pane, the pop-up always works even when I encounter this bug. Don’t know of any other solutions or workarounds.
