Is this hardware dependent? Can you reproduce this in another system?
I am trying to understand if this graphics or gtk {3 vs 2} issue.
Hi Yenya, thanks for your support on bug 1645829. But, I don't see flashing on my Thunar. I agree, it looks a little similar to my issue, but my Thunar tooltips are missing entirely, but it doesn't flash. Wired. Yeah, okay, they could be related. Who knows. Created attachment 1502916 [details]
Panel and Thunar tooltips (intel hardware)
Paul, maybe the tooltips appear and disappear too fast - at first I did not see them flashing in Panel at all, only background of the applets blink slightly. But looking closely, there indeed are occasionally appearing and disappearing tooltips.
I tried to create another screencast, this time with Panel and Thunar, created on my laptop. I can see tooltips flashing in both Panel and Thunar, but Panel tooltips disappear so quickly, that they are not even captured by the simplescreenrecorder. In the screencast, there is only flashing tooltip visible above one of the three Panel applets I tried to hold the mouse over, but in reality all three of them displayed tooltip at least once for a very brief period of time.
Mukundan - the first screencast was created on Ryzen workstation with Radeon GPU, the second one is from my HP Elitebook 840 with Intel CPU and graphics.
Alright, I guess it is not hardware related. I am going to guess this is gtk-3 issue in Xfce perhaps. Almost certainly the same bug as bz 1645829 and bz 1644128. This sounds like the culprit upstream: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk/issues/1371 bz 1645829 seems to be where the discussion is liveliest. This message is a reminder that Fedora 29 is nearing its end of life. Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 29 on 2019-11-26. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '29'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 29 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. Fedora 29 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2019-11-26. Fedora 29 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this bug. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed. |
