Maybe the tooltip is not what I what, because I think tooltip will disappear when user input something. I want a frame the display text like tooltip, and I can update the text according to user's input and hide it when needed. I think such feature is useful, for example it can be used for displaying candicate expansions or using by input methods. I try x-show-tip, but the frame display and disappear too often. -- Best Regards, Ye Wenbin
