unfortunate indeed. there's a way to manually show a tooltip, but then I have to manually position it, and manually re-show it if the mouse moves in&out of the widget. unless I can fake a mouse move event :P seems like I'm doing a lot of hacky event faking lately. "when needed" is tricky too; it seems like I'd have to have every input button emit signals when it starts & stops wanting input, and then have the UI keep a count of them and hide the label when there's 0 of them. this doesn't feel right. I feel like I'm missing something... I'm gonna go do something else and hope that my subconscious (or someone on this list) comes up with an answer. :) -- This message brought to you by eevil bananas and the number 3. www.chani3.com
