I didn't see the original, but I strongly disagree that 10 seconds is too long for reading a potentially long message in a tooltip. As long as the user is not using the keyboard or mouse, what harm is there in continuing to display the tooltip?
I often find that tooltips hide something useful. That is with window manager tooltips, not Emacs tooltips; I run Emacs on a console, so I don't often run into Emacs tooltips. However, if people have similr experiences with Emacs tooltips, that would be a good reason for them to disappear. _______________________________________________ Emacs-devel mailing list Emacs-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-devel
