Hi, I also agree (or won't mind)... The thing is, I think removing the tooltip would make things 'inconsistent', but it's not that bad since it's not a contact, it's a separate frame.. but anyways, maybe some people will say they are used to the tooltip being there, but it won't matter since it holds no extra info. The thing is, I think you suggested this because the tooltip gets on top of the popup window, right ? and it's annoying on mac, so I would suggest you search/replace and change all the tk_popup into another function which would do a destroy .balloon before calling tk_popup. This way, it will avoid this bug anyway, and will avoid having it also with the new tooltip Karel suggested..
