Hello there ?
There were folks in the recent time running DC++ on wine. I'm also one of
them, and I have a small problem, which turns out to be very annoying. The
action buttons at the top of the main DC++ window as well as tabs at the
bottom tend to show "tooltips" containing information about the last
files
to be hashed. However, there is an error somewhere that these tooltip windows
are there forever, they don't go away, when they should. Once activated
"tooltip" can be moved by placing the mouse on another button/tab, but
not
deactivated. Buttons and tabs even seem to have their own "tooltip
logic",
independent on each other, so You can have two tooltips visible simultaneously
and showing the same.
And their behaviour is really "aggresive" - they always stay on top of
all
windows and they automatically move to any virtual desktop.
Does anybody else observe the same problem, and did anybody eventually find
a solution for it ?
I have the latest CVS wine (updated today) and DC++ installed manually, no
winetools used.
With regards, Pavel Troller

I don't know the exact cause of the problem or the subsequent fix, but I am sure that it is being worked on. Just keep updating wine and a fix will hopefully be available soon. -- James Hawkins
Hi, --- Pavel Troller <patrol@sinus.cz> wrote:> ... these tooltip windows > are there forever, they don't go away, when they > should. Once activated "tooltip" can be moved...I get much the same behaviour with VirtualDub (which otherwise works pretty much perfectly) - the tooltip for the scroller usually ends up covering up either the time/frame counter or the play controls :-( Regards, Stephen ___________________________________________________________ ALL-NEW Yahoo!

Hmmm, I get similar phenomona from my KDE 3.3 desktop - descriptions of icons will come up like they're supposed to, then not necessarily disappear. Perhaps some prb with video drivers?
