    Dear Steve et al.,

    attached is a sample piece of code that demonstrates two bugs
    with the current implementation of tooltips when used with
    tabfolders.

    Run the code and two little windows will pop up, one lying on
    top of the other.

    Move the mouse over the "Press me!" button on the topmost form
    and a tooltip is displayed. Super.

    Moving this form aside to display the other, move your mouse
    over the two "Press me!" buttons in turn.

    BUG 1. The position of the tooltip for the form just moved has
    not been updated.

    With the mouse over the "Press me!" button close the form
    using the Alt-E shortcut.

    BUG 2. The form disappears but the tooltip remains.

    BUG 1 is a direct result of the x,y coords of the FL_FORM
    holding the tabbed folder are not updated when the window is
    moved.

    Now we've moved to Open Source real fixes should be possible,
    but temporary work arounds would be nice too ;-) Any ideas?

    Angus

    ps, this code was compiled with RC5 and
    gcc -I/usr/local/include -o tooltip tooltip.c -L/usr/local/lib
    -lforms -lm
