Description Tom Englund 2023-01-20 09:23:32 UTC

SUMMARY
popups/tooltips? in qtcreator doesnt follow the mouse. if i hover one file it shows the filepath, if i move the mouse over to another item and continue to traverse the file list the popup stays in the same place as the first shown but edits the text. 


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1.  open qtcreator and a project with a few files
2.  hoover the mouse over one file until the tooltip/popup shows
3.  begin move the mouse down over other files so the tooltip/popup changes

OBSERVED RESULT
popup changes text but does not move.


EXPECTED RESULT
on x11 it does follow the mouse when hoovering other items. it can be "moved" if you simply close the popup by not hoovering anything and then approach a new item.

iirc xdg-popup repositioning was added after 5.15 release. qtwayland needs to gain support for xdg_popup.reposition. Can you file a Qt bug report please and leave a link here?
