Adding tooltips to toolbar icons

Post by clauderenaud »

Hi all,

I don't use graphic stuff very often, because my screen reader don't feel very well with them, but when I don't have the choice ...
I just noticed that toolbar icons have no tooltips, could it be possible to add some ?
Regards,

They have tooltips, but I have written them myself! I guess that fools your screen reader because he's looking for TOOLTIP class windows. Interesting issue.

Strange because when I asked my sighted wife, she did not see any tooltip ...

Hm, they take 750 milliseconds to pop up, and there's no way to turn them off.

Anybody else sees no tooltips on the toolbar?
