Since the list has been slow . . .
Here are some tips about how to deal with the humongous tooltips that popup on
the xfce 4.10 desktop icons. They are incredibly annoying and distracting.
There used to be an option in Settings > Desktop > Icons to toggle "Show icon
tooltips" on/off but it has disappeared from xfce 4.10. I was told that option
is returning in xfce 4.12.
If you want to disable ALL tooltips add this line to ~/.gtkrc-2.0. Note: Users
have noted some problems with this method:
gtk-enable-tooltips = 0
If you want to keep tooltips functional, here's how to at least reduce the
footprint of the desktop icon tooltips by eliminating the image in the tooltip.
This also goes in ~/.gtkrc-2.0. No side effect here but YMMV:
style "xfdesktop-icon-view" {
XfdesktopIconView::tooltip-size = 0
}
widget_class "*XfdesktopIconView*" style "xfdesktop-icon-view"
Screenies attached.
