Hmm, I can't reproduce this with latest CVS (x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu,
GTK+ Version 2.14.4).  The tooltips from the toolbar and mode-line are
definitely antialiased.

You could try compiling directly from CVS code and see if the problem
persists.  Otherwise, I'm not sure what to try.

Sorry, this could not be reproduced and so we cannot really do anything.

Please send a response if the problem still occurs with the latest
release, 23.3, started with -Q, and we can reopen this report.

I use Xtf font backend under X. Everything is drawn antialiased as
expected except tooltips.

I'm ready to provide any additional info,
Andrey

I confirm this is not reproducible any more with Emacs 23.3. The
problem has been fixed.

Thank you,
Andrey Paramonov

Happy New Year!

I've just checked the problem with the latest snapshot and it's still
here. Here are the relevant customizations:

from .emacs:

(custom-set-faces
  ;; custom-set-faces was added by Custom.
  ;; If you edit it by hand, you could mess it up, so be careful.
  ;; Your init file should contain only one such instance.
  ;; If there is more than one, they won't work right.
 '(fixed-pitch ((t (:family "DejaVu Sans Mono"))))
 '(variable-pitch ((t (:family "DejaVu Sans")))))

from .Xresources:

emacs*fontBackend: xft
emacs*font: DejaVu Sans Mono-11
emacs*toolBar: off

Note that the tooltip face is by default inherited from the variable-
pitch face. The variable-pitch face is drawn antialiased in the emacs
frame, but not in the tool tips. Also, if I remove the inheritance,
the tool tips become antialiased.

Hope it will help to track down the problem,
Andrey
