Description R. Kempf 2003-02-27 19:32:34 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.1)
OS:          Linux

When I place my mouse over an entry in the listed programs (progamm list?) in kicker a tooltip shows me the full description of the program (which is very nice, b.t.w.) as it should.
When I drag the mouse to the edge of the screen the same tooltip is presented to me, but sometimes on a slightly shifted position (which is still nice).
However, the tooltip stays there after I drag the mouse along the screen edge, then back over the area of the programm list in kicker, where no program is displayed, and then onto the part of the screen that is not used by kicker.

Since I use the kicker on the left side of the screen the tooltip blocks my view
This may sound like a very exotic case, but it happens to me over and over again. 

The problem is not critical due to the automatic fading of the tooltip after a certain period, but very annoying.

The bug might be correlated with bug# 51237.
