Description Andrew Conkling 2006-03-18 02:03:26 UTC 
Please describe the problem:
I keep my browser at the lower-right corner of my screen for the most part, and
I've noticed that some tooltips can display off the right side of the screen. 
The tooltip's position should be recalculated to align with the right edge of
the screen.  Knowing a bit of GTK+ programming, I'm surprised that it doesn't
happen automatically; I would guess that this is related to Mozilla engine code,
except that I don't have this problem in Firefox 1.5.0.1.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Move your browser to the right-side of your screen and make sure it's not
maximized (a width of 800px or so would do).
2. Visit http://www.gnome.org/projects/epiphany.
3. Scroll down to the "Promote Epiphany!" sidebar on the right.
4. Hover over the picture to see the tooltip "Epiphany, the browser that just
works" go off the edge of the screen.

Actual results:


Expected results:


Does this happen every time?
