Description Christian Dywan 2009-12-10 11:32:34 UTC 
I noticed that Gail is still using GtkToolips. I think it should be a good idea to fix that. I don't know if it has to be kept in 2.x, otherwise I suggest it to be fixed in 2.90 at least.
Comment 1 Christian Dywan 2009-12-10 11:34:43 UTC 
See this commit in the 2.90 branch:

http://git.gnome.org/cgit/gtk+/commit/?h=gtk-2-90

Please give it a look and see if it makes sense in the current 2.x.

The second occurance is in gailwindow.c

> if (GTK_WIDGET_VISIBLE(widget) && gtk_tooltips_get_info_from_tip_window (GTK_WINDOW (widget), NULL, &current_widget))

This will need to be replaced or removed.

Actually the commit above is specifically http://git.gnome.org/cgit/gtk+/commit/?h=gtk-2-90&id=1e2a73160e56b9f3e618681a2159ec880bc3e407

That commit looks good for master to me.
Comment 4 Christian Dywan 2009-12-17 09:42:43 UTC 
Pushed the commit to master. Leaving the bug open to discuss gailwindow.c.
Comment 5 Matthias Clasen 2011-02-17 03:21:02 UTC 
The tooltip widget is not exposed in the GtkTooltip api. The best fix for this will be to move the accessible implementation into GtkTooltip
