Hi William, yes I guess that feature would be a good enhancement. But I don't like the idea of adding one more property to the widget class. For my understanding it's better to show the tool tip even if the target widget was disabled. Especially since there is the property "blockToolTip" already present to suppress the tooltip. But this would cause in a behavior change.
Anyway, I would advise you to first add a comment to the bug you found to point Martin to this issue. Than think about the possibility to fork qooxdoo in github and apply the given patch there.

I did some search and found 2 old posts about same answer (http://qooxdoo.678.n2.nabble.com/Tooltips-and-disabled-buttons-td5693574.html and http://qooxdoo.678.n2.nabble.com/show-tooltip-on-disabled-widgets-td7584773.html) and even a bug report with attached patch (http://bugzilla.qooxdoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7792, patch is very simple and seems valid). I think it's still not possible today and I'd like to know the opinion of core team about this feature. -- View this message in context: http://qooxdoo.678.n2.nabble.com/Show-tooltip-of-a-widget-even-if-it-disabled-tp7586578.html Sent from the qooxdoo mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Dive into the World of Parallel Programming!
