There was small check box, it was not possible to check it that it sticks. When clicked, some blue cursor appeared on the sticky tooltip. My theme was dark, the box was not really visible, maybe it was dark too. It looks like sticky notes on Gnome desktop. It is great that such features are easily implementable. Thank you for demo.
