Sporadic inability to view tooltips?

Post by shanecavanaugh »

There are times when I can hover over a username in my contact list and see the tooltip that displays their status and such, but other times I hover over the username and no tooltip is displayed at all. I know that the away messages are loaded because my contact list is set to show the away messages next to the usernames. I can't seem to find a pattern in the problem; sometimes it occurs, sometimes it doesn't.

Same. Just exposé-unexposé to get them back.

Didn't work. It might be the result of my having my contact list window level set to "Below Other Windows," but, again, it's sporadic, so I don't see why there wouldn't be a pattern if that was it.

I have the same problem. The only way I've seen to get the tooltips back is to move the contact list slightly.

That works for me. Still a bug, but at least I know a partial workaround. Thanks.
