Description edscott 2014-01-05 16:08:28 UTC 
Tooltip widget is shown before placing window on screen, and then again shown when in correct position. 

Showing before moving the tooltip into position is a real eyesore and generates unnecessary expose events.

do not show tooltip before placing

tooltip widget is shown after placing on screen. It is not necessary to show it before moving because this generates unnecessary expose events.

Is that patch the wrong way around or did you mean to add a show() call?
Comment 3 Olivier Brunel (jjacky) 2014-01-07 16:03:35 UTC 
Looks like a duplicate of https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=698730
Comment 4 edscott 2014-01-07 18:19:12 UTC 
Right. The patch is reversed. The show() call should be removed.

On examining bug https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=698730 I see that the patch https://bugzilla.gnome.org/attachment.cgi?id=257359 (present in 3.8.8) is what caused bug 721583. 

Applying the second patch, https://bugzilla.gnome.org/attachment.cgi?id=259950 bug 721583 is resolved. So it would duplicate 698730 and should be closed.

Thanks!
