Manual tooltips
Last modified: 2008-07-15 06:39:52 UTC
We should probably export a tooltip widget which can be controlled manually, instead of set on a widget. There are plenty of apps that need this due to various kinds of custom display. Needs to be thought through in the context of how we implement gtk_widget_set_tooltip(), etc., though.
Move bugs which are tracking planned 2.4 features to the proper target milestones.
Now a duplicate of 156581.
No, this is something entirely different ... being able to use tooltips on individual subparts of a widget, not replacing the contents of the popup.
Should be fixed with the new tooltips api in 2.12
