* bug#32298: 26.1.50; Emacs gtk system tooltips are not shown as tooltips

This happens at least in the popular i3 window manager and was
reported to their tracker [1]. Please read that report, there are lots
of details there, including xprop and xwininfo outputs for the
tooltips.

The weird thing is that emacs gtk tooltips haven't any tooltip related
property set. I'm not sure whether this is because of the way I've
called xprop and xwininfo on them (again, details in [1]) or what, but
the problem is that the window manager is trying to manage them since it
can't indentify them as tooltips and, so, they're not themed as the gtk
theme specifies for tooltips.

In xg_prepare_tooltip after

   gwin = gtk_widget_get_window (GTK_WIDGET (x->ttip_window));

insert the line

   gdk_window_set_override_redirect (gwin, TRUE);

but I doubt this would help much making GTK tooltips look as wanted
by a specific theme.

I think your suggestion is on the right track but I have added that
line and recompiled and still xwininfo reports `Override Redirect
State: no`.

I also tried adding (override-redirect . t) to
tooltip-frame-parameters but to no avail. I assume these parameters
are only for non system tooltips.

Right.  Does the 'override-redirect' parameter work for normal,
non-tooltip frames on your system?  Does xwininfo report it as
"override-redirect"?

This is what xwininfo reports for a tooltip in firefox:



xwininfo: Window id: 0x1c00898 (has no name)

  Parent window id: 0x1c00897 "Firefox"

It's not override redirected but still is different from the report
for the tooltip in emacs:

Sorry, this one is for emacs (the one in my previous email was copied
from the i3 report but it seems that something changed since then),
now it doesn't look very different to me:

xwininfo: Window id: 0x1600165 (has no name)

  Root window id: 0xf5 (the root window) "i3"
  Parent window id: 0x1600164 (has no name)

IIUC in both cases xwindow reports nothing tooltip specific for these
tooltip windows.  So I wonder how a tooltip specific theme background
could be applied to them.  Would xprop reveal anything useful in this
regard?

In either case, for i3's sake we should be able to make our tooltips
override-redirect windows and apparently the request to do that gets
lost somewhere.
