Description Jared Burns CLA 2002-06-21 16:15:51 EDT 
Build 20020621
Linux-GTK

1. Hover a button until the hover help for the button appears.
2. Press Ctrl+F1 to summon the "F1 help."
3. The F1 help appears under the hover help, making it impossible to read the 
obscured text. Also, the original hover help is now stuck. It won't go away 
even when clicking elsewhere.

Boris to investigate.

Internally in the Shell deactivate SWT should hide the tooltip.It would fix this
bug.

But there is two problems with this:
1) Should have only one tooltip handle by Shell, currently each ToolBar has it
own tooltip handle.
2) Activate/Deactivate will stop working in certain conditions. (I going to file
a bug about this).

I'm not sure if it's possible, but it would also help if the key to summon
help was remappable.

We have fixed this a while ago: there is only one tooltip handle by shell now.
Fixed in 3.0
