[REBOL] help on Tooltips?

From: ingo::2b1::de at: 27-May-2002 13:01

Hi All,

now I'm trying to show additional info on entries in my layout, I have a
feel object with the following (experimenal) 'over func:

over: func [f a e /local new-entry][
   prin "over "
   either a [
     print "+"
     xx: make face [
       offset: e
     ]
     xx/pane: layout [ title f/user-data/header ]
     show-popup/window xx month-lay ; month-lay is my top-level layout
   ] [

     print "-"
     hide xx
   ]
]

After moving around a while I get no more events (at least, 'over isn't
called any more), any ideas on how to make it behave better?

Btw, I tried to use 'hide-popup, but that closed the whole window.

Btw2, the function 'show-dropdown in

   probe get-style 'drop-down

might be of some help, if only I understood what it's doing, has anyone
tried a drop-down in /view 1.2.5? It seems not to work properly in a
test of mine (drop-down field is never closed), and as I just noticed,
it's not present in /view 1.2.1.

Kind regards,

Ingo
