GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 326645
Calendar Tooltips Do Not Go Away If Navigate With Scroll Wheel
Last modified: 2013-09-13 01:00:27 UTC
Please describe the problem: Wow, I found an obscure one. :) The tooltips that open when you mouse over a calendar event do not understand the scroll wheel event. What happens is the tooltip gets "stuck" open and it's impossible to get rid of the tooltip. To recreate, you need to have a mouse with a middle scroll wheel. Put calendar into monthly view and then do a mouse over an event. The tooltip will open and display. If you then scroll with your middle mouse button it flips up or down one month but the tooltip remains. It is then "stuck" and impossible to remove. It's sitting over the top of the screen. You have to close Evolution completely to get rid of it. I'm attaching a shot to show you how it's floating over the top of the window. I took an xterm window and put it over Evolution and the tooltip is still hanging over the top. Steps to reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual results: Expected results: Does this happen every time? Other information:
Created attachment 57171 [details] Tooltip floating over Evolution, impossible to get rid of it. No GUI trigger coded for scroll wheel.
Most likely a dupe of bug 220286, although more severe. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 220286 ***
Hmm really not a dupe. This is a different custom tooltips, and it is severe.
Fixed in 2.5.90, closing.
