This is also because GTK+ hides a tooltip as soon as something is clicked to avoid the tooltip getting in your way. > It seems the popup is a different gtk.Widget, and I should connect to that > one to attach tooltips.

There is no API call to access this popup widget directly (this has also been done deliberately, since the popup widget/window can change when the theme changes and in general people shouldn't mess around with it ;). > Can somebody clearify which is the way a ComboBox pops a menu and how I can > get to it's components to set a tooltip? Right now I don't see a way how to easily set a tooltip on the combo box popup. I do agree that this would be very useful to be able to do and we should support this in a future version of GTK+. regards, -kris. _______________________________________________ gtk-list mailing list gtk-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
