All,

There's something a bit odd about the way tooltips work... I'm seeing  
this same effect with code built with 1.1.9 and 1.3, and I *think*  
I've seen this effect on occasion in the past, so I don't think it is  
a new "feature".

However, I'm seeing it a lot more now. Here's the description...

I have an app with a main "edit" window, and a couple of non-modal  
tool windows around it. This is launched by clicking on an icon, as  
usual.

Once the app launches, I move the cursor into the main window.
As I do this, it passes through one of the tool windows. If, in doing  
so, the cursor passes through one of the buttons on the tool window  
(and it usually does) then when the cursor stops in the main window  
(which has no tooltip set) the tooltip for the button, through which  
the cursor passed on the way, will pop up. Odd.

Now, because of the layout of icons on the desktop, I'm hitting this  
pretty much 100% with this app.

The first few times it happened, I just thought it was odd, but it is  
consistent, and I'm increasingly sure I've seen the same effect  
before - I *think* that fluid sometimes does it, for example.

I'm seeing this on my mac, but I'm sure I have seen the same effect  
in linux and win32 also, FWIW.

Anyone else seeing this? I haven't raised an STR, as I'm not quite  
sure what to put...
