Fixes the tooltip behaviour (1.30 KB, patch)

Description Michael Hofmann 2005-10-28 20:05:54 UTC 
Use the mouse wheel over the mixer applet to change the volume. The tooltip
hides, I'm not able to see the current percentage.

This behaviour comes because GTK tooltips tend to hide on various events (mouse
buttons etc.). It would be a nice feature though to see the currently selected
percentage when using the scroll wheel to adjust the volume.

Fixes the tooltip behaviour

This patch fixes the behaviour mentioned above by blocking the event-after
handler on mouse scroll events (which is used to hide the tooltip).

I'm not sure whether there is a better way to do this.

I'm not opposed to this approach... Davyd, you ok with such hacks?
Comment 3 Danielle Madeley 2005-10-29 05:08:28 UTC 
Yep. Haven't tested it, but the approach seems ok.

        * applet.c: (gnome_volume_applet_init), (cb_stop_scroll_events):
          Block removal of tooltip on scroll, so that the tooltip will
          continue to be shown when we mouseover the applet and scroll
          to change volume; this allows to view the percentage as you change
          it (#320123).
