Tooltips don't disappear when pointer moved away.

[Tim Jones]

When a tool tip appears after hovering over a gnome desktop tool-tipped anything, you can't select anything else whilst the tool-tip is still open.

This is easily visible if you hover over a application menu item, wait for the tool-tip, and then move to another menu item. The selection will not change whilst the tool-tip is visible.

I can not confirm this. What version are you using (System --> about gnome)? Can you provide a screenshot where one can clearly see the behaviour? Thanks.

Hi Martin,

I've just installed Gutsy (
http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/dvd/current/gutsy-dvd-i386.iso), and upgraded all
packages to latest.

uname -a:
Linux gutsy 2.6.22-8-generic #1 SMP Thu Jul 12 15:59:45 GMT 2007 i686
GNU/Linux

I've just started up apache and put a recording of the problem on my site.
Thought it may be too big for an attachment, I'll try and leave it there for
a while, unless it can be moved somewhere else. It's at
http://www.mr-dog.net/files/out.ogg.

Cheers,

Tim

Looks like a GTK issue, on what application do you get it?

likely a duplicate of bug #128781
