At the above is first mail I read thoroughly on this topic, I don't know if this idea has already been discussed or not. I think the right thing is to decide the tooltip X/Y offset according to the size and position of the rectangle area that activates the tooltip, not according to the mouse position. Then we can make tooltip never overlap with the rectangle area, for instance, by aligning the bottom-left corner of the tooltip with 5/-5 offset from the top-left corder of the rectangle area will be good. This is for people who use the default mouse cursor. People who use a mouse cursor of which hot spot is at bottom may want to allign the top-left corner of the tooltip with the bottom-left corner of the rectangle area. Example: +------------------------------+ | tooltip text | +------------------------------+ +---------------+ | ICON | | or MENU | +---------------+ --- Ken'ichi HANDA handa@m17n.org
