Description Adria 2011-02-17 20:21:32 UTC

Version:           1.0.80 (using Devel) 
OS:                Linux

It would be nice that when you hoover on a contact from the contact list, their tooltip was shown even if that window has not focus.

I've managed to achieve this behaviour by adding:

   window()->setAttribute( Qt::WA_AlwaysShowToolTips );

to line 268 in kopetewindow.cpp

Is it the right approach? If so, would you mind including this?

Thank you very much.

I've been using this hack for some days now and it hasn't caused any problems

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Hoover on a contact with the contact list unfocused



OS: Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.37-ARCH
Compiler: gcc
