Bug 398386 Tooltips appearing randomly
Reported: 2013-01-17 08:07:39 | Status: resolved fixed

Found while testing 4.2.2 build M20130116-1800 that some of the tooltips on toolbar items are not appearing. Interestingly this is not happening uniformly to all toolitems. I was able to reproduce this with a fresh workspace as well as using an existing workspace. I'm not sure if this would be easily reproducible on a different machine but I noticed that within a single toolbar itself, some tooitems are showing tooltips while some are not. I was testing on Ubuntu 12.04 x86_64.
