It would seem to me to be a bug for the tips dialog to be modal, i.e.
not allow input into other dialogs or the main frame. A modal dialog
would seem to me to be foisting the "tips" on users :).
And, yes, agreed that it's not helpful for the two dialogs to overlap.

Hi, Sending to the Design list since tip of the day is not released
yet.
If a reminder dialog pops up upon starting Chandler, the reminders
cannot be snoozed or dismissed until the tip is closed. The tip dialog
is under the reminder dialog, and on the screen resolutions I use on
Windows XP, the tip dialog close button is not visible. The user must
grab and move the tip dialog to expose its close button, close it, and
then return to the reminder dialog. Seems a bit bumpy...could the tip
dialog be displayed elsewhere such as top left of screen or could the
reminder dialog be given first focus or top layer or whatever would be
the correct way to describe this?
