Screen recording

SUMMARY

When hovering the cursor over the "Wayland to X11 Videobridge" entry for instance, the tooltip's background floats in first and then the text label, where it makes some turns, causing minor but still visible noise.

Please see the screen recording slowed down to 10% of the original speed for better clarity.

Can reproduce.
Comment 2 postix 2024-10-11 17:41:01 UTC
If one looks closely, there are indeed three layers involved:
two backgrounds stacked, which glide in with different speeds, plus the label on top.
