Smarter positioning of bubble info
Last modified: 2004-12-22 21:47:04 UTC
Currently, gtk2 places the bubble help below the mouse cursor. This is annoying, to say the least, when going through menus. A better way would be to either: 1) make the bubble info transparent or 2) position the bubble in the direction where the mouse came from (kinda like a mouse tail). The second option would allow a user to read the bubble help and at the same time allow him/her to see the next item found in the direction he was moving the mouse in originally.
