* This only affects the program's gtk2 version, qt5 (and presumably qt6) is (are) fine. * The tests were done on X, not Wayland. * The placement of the popup list is defined by reading the note's left and adding to it the link button's left so that popup appears (or should appear) over that button. _______________________________________________ enlightenment-users mailing list enlightenment-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/enlightenment-users
