[openbox] Sticky hover messages

Hi Johan,



I don't think this is a problem with openbox. I went over the documentation and I don't see any mention of a "hover" action in the mouse bindings. Might be an issue with your compositor (xcompmgr or picom), or maybe the theme you are using. Both have actions defined for hovering.



With Regards,



Russ

I'm not sure if this is related to OB but maybe someone can help me out.

When I'm in Firefox, many items on the page show "hover" messages. For
example moveing over an image often shows the title of the image.

When such a hover message is shown, and I switch to another window or
workspace using a hot key, the hover message sticks on the screen and I
cannot get rid if of until I go back to the original window that initiated
it.

This is very annoying.

Are more users seeing this? Is there anything I can do to prevent this?
