GTK Tooltip positioning bug (video) (158.90 KB, video/webm)

GTK Tooltip positioning bug (video)

When a tooltip is shown, sometimes it's placed at the position the previous tooltip was shown. Sometimes it is shown in the top left corner.

This does not happen always, so I don't think bug 756910 is the same.

See the attached screencast.

What version of mutter, gnome-shell and gtk+ were you using?

This happened in Fedora 24 (3.20.x). I can't reproduce this in Debian testing, nor Fedora 25 Beta (3.22.x).
