Description Markus Keller CLA 2007-06-19 11:15:34 EDT 
I20070615-1200

- new workspace
- on Welcome page, move the mouse to below the "Overview" button's text rectangle
- move the mouse horizontally
=> button and rectangle quickly appear and disappear, which results in an anoying flickering when moving the cursor in that area

I know why this is happening. It is due to this sequence in E:\EclipseWorkspaces\U\org.eclipse.ui.intro.universal\themes\circles\html\shared.css:


/*
 * Navigation link label text is normally hidden. Workaround to produce the
 * same effect as display: none while still allowing screenreaders to
 * speak it.
 */
#navigation-links a .link-label { 
	position: absolute;
	left: -999px;
	width: 990px;
}

This has the side effect of creating a very wide hover area for the containing element. I'll see if there is a better way to achieve the desired effect.
