> Unfortunately in NetBeans sometimes it is quite tricky to put your mouse into popup before it is automatically closed. i haven't looked at this closer yet but my suspicion is that the (not always reproducible) bug is caused due to incorrect positioning of the popup location. Tooltips disappear immediately if the mouse leaves the component bounds it was spawned on. That is likely why it disappears as soon you try to move the mouse onto the component (e.g to reach the pin icon). Other times it works fine. This PR seems to workaround it by not making the tooltip close at all, which likely is not the right approach, since it would make the whole pining functionality (which is buggy) non-functional if I understand this correctly. example this is when it worked: <img width="553" height="153" alt="image" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/fc8f2148-804e-480d-b0be-a2615771f1c6"; /> IMO: we should try the tackle the underlying issue, so that the mouse can reach the pin without it despawning. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
