Adding tooltips to buttons and other widgets is easy with gtk_tooltips_set_tip(), I can do that, no problem! However, can I add tooltips to specific "areas" of a drawing area (say for example to provide info about some custom drawn button or control)... I guess what I'd like to be able to do is say, "here's the text, place a tooltip at this x,y location" and then have it time out as normal... Of course, I could write my own tooltips code, but I was hoping to avoid that :-) -- David J.
