they do look better, although they use slightly more real estate than standard rectangle tooltips, and they appear farther away from the parent control.
i'd be all for adding this style if we could also apply it to other tooltips for consistency (such as ones managed by toolbars, tabs, list- views). i have tried to apply the style on list-view tooltips with the attached patch but modifying the style of the tooltip at run time doesn't seem to work. ** Patch added: "non-working patch for list-view tooltips" https://bugs.launchpad.net/dcplusplus/+bug/694167/+attachment/1776683/+files/patch.patch -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Dcplusplus-team, which is subscribed to DC++. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/694167 Title: Nicer "balloon" style tooltips for status bars Status in DC++: New Bug description: I propose changing the style for tooltips to balloon style which look nicer and give a cleaner look _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~linuxdcpp-team Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~linuxdcpp-team More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
