Hi Everyone --
I want to catch when the mouse is hovered over a certain widget and call
a method at the same time a tooltip popup would appear.
So I connected the widget to the query-tooltip signal like this.
widget.set_tooltip_text("Hello World!")
widget.connect("query-tooltip", self.hover)
But self.hover is called as soon as the mouse enters the widget's
allocation. There is no delay. There is, however, a delay for the
appearance of the tooltip.
Does anyone know how can I call self.hover at the same time a tooltip
appears?
I think this is a delay internal to gtk+, and it's very likely set for a
reason. You do want to wait a little bit (< 0.5 sec) before displaying the
tooltips, otherwise you would just disturb the users who just want to use
the applications and are not interested in hints on how to use it.
