Description Konstantin Tokarev 2010-02-26 17:36:19 UTC
Version:            (using KDE 4.3.5)
Installed from:    Mandriva RPMs

Currently KDE applications don't show tooltips in inactive windows, but sometimes it's useful (GTK and KDE3 applications do it). There's widget attribute Qt::WA_AlwaysShowToolTips which can fix it

Moving this wish to KWin.
Comment 2 Martin Flöser 2011-01-16 13:11:00 UTC
kwin cannot change internals of windows. This has to be changed in each and every application.
