Created attachment 139627 [details] Inconsistent tooltip behavior SUMMARY When interacting with other parts of the panel, the tooltip usually disappears when you move the cursor outside of the region where the icon is at, but the same doesn't happen when you hover the cursor over a a pinned icon in the Task Manager. In that situation, you are able to move the mouse over the tooltip and it won't disappear until you move the mouse away. This behavior is inconsistent with all other tooltips in Plasma. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Pin an app (don't open it) 2. Hover cursor over icon until tooltip appears 3. Place mouse over it OBSERVED RESULT The tooltip will stay on screen, and you have to move the cursor outside of its boundaries if you want to click on something behind it. All other tooltips anywhere else in Plasma disappear as soon as the cursor leaves the icon region. EXPECTED RESULT It should disappear as soon as the cursor moves outside of the pinned icon region. Operating System: KDE neon 5.22 KDE Plasma Version: 5.22.2 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.83.0 Qt Version: 5.15.3 Kernel Version: 5.8.0-59-generic (64-bit) Graphics Platform: Wayland Processors: 4 × Intel® Core™ i5-6200U CPU @ 2.30GHz Memory: 7.7 GiB of RAM Graphics Processor: Mesa Intel® HD Graphics 520
Task manager tooltips behave the same way actually. But you're right, it's kind of inconsistent. Applet tooltips and System Tray tooltips do disappear.

Git commit 95c7a014e79db6477877f164d1158563725eb1d5 by Nate Graham. Committed on 06/08/2021 at 15:21. Pushed by ngraham into branch 'master'. [applets/taskmanager] Don't make pinned app tooltips interactive "Interactive" means that the tooltip will not disappear automatically when hovered by the cursor. This is appropriate for task tooltips, but pinned app tooltips have no content, so it does not make sense for them. Let's make them non-interactive.
