qt-mac from macports
kdelibs 4.7.3 from scratch
callibra 2.3.84 from scratch

No X11

every time a tool tip shows up, doesn't go away.

Any hint on how to fix this? a patch maybe?
When this happens, the menu bar goes away ,although i can make it back moving some docker, but the tool tip is still there. Sometimes those tool tips goes away randomly.

Hm... I guess it could be a bug in Qt -- though Krita is also a possibility. There are no Krita developers who have a mac, I am already impressed that it worked :-)

Well, i found that this is a problem throughout all the Calligra suite. I will have to get my hands dirty in the calligra libraries trying to solve this.


N Yes! Calligra and the KDE apps works fairly well, except for some minor bugs that tell me that there's no developers who works under Mac OS X. :



Anyway, if i solve this ill post it here...

With this minor hack the problem is fixed :

calligra-2.3.84/libs/main/KoItemToolTip.cpp

Code: Select all
48c48
<     setWindowFlags(Qt::FramelessWindowHint  | Qt::ToolTip
---
>     setWindowFlags(Qt::FramelessWindowHint  | Qt::Tool


so, i have a question:

Ha! I think because at one point it made a visual difference... I seem to remember that a Qt::ToolTip only could have the KDE tooltip background color, which we didn't want... But let's commit your patch!
