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
