Now move the mouse slowly along the modeline. Helper balloons pop up as we move over the various items there, however, some have their beginning words clipped off the left edge of the screen. (C-h l shows several .) Putting the mouse on the leftmost place of the modeline works ok, but if instead placed on the rightmost place, we see the clipping. Also, just start emacs. All there in the modeline is just "---GNU Emacs---". In this state putting the mouse on the modeline does noting at all.
