The goal of this bug is to take advantage of XUL panels if the topmost document hosting the devtools toolbox is a XUL panel. 

XUL panels can be displayed outside of the boundaries of their container document, which can be very useful for small toolboxes.

The XUL panel should be used only as an invisible wrapper to position the HTML Tooltip. The visible markup and style should remain the same as the ones used in the regular HTML tooltip.

I'm wondering if you have the same issue, or if that's specific to linux?
The tooltip are not positioned correctly vertically. It is correct horizontaly.
It is too high on top whenever the tooltip displays on top or bottom.
It seems to be shifted by about the side of the arrow or something.

Otherwise it seems to work great. I got the test passing for the color picker!
Great! Thanks for letting me know about the issue on Linux. My implementation was only working on OSX as it turns out. I have a new patch that should fix this.

I want to land parts 1-7 of Bug 1266456 first, and will send my patch on top of this, otherwise the rebasing will become too painful.

Bug 1267403 - HTMLTooltip: add useXulWrapper option when displayed in a XUL document;

Switching to feedback for now, because I still have one failure on Windows VMs on try. In the meantime, can you let me know if you're ok with the overall approach?

It looks like you can make this xul hack less intrusive.

Otherwise, I'm not able to easily apply this patch. Is this based on some other bug or something that landed very recently?

I'm not sure I'm following exactly everything in there, but can't you pass the relative position to showXulWrapperAt and prevent having such xul specifics within show()?

Then here we would still compute position relative to the doc.

"not enough position"?
Did you meant "not enough space"?

Do you have a STR to reproduce this if I comment this line?
Could it be that the panel have some kind of 1px border which mess up with this?

Then here we would only append the screen offsets, but the document offsets.

Is setting hidden to true required?

Yes this one is based on my last patches for the autocomplete migration which did not land yet. I will reupload a version that can be applied on top of fx-team.

I need to have the position of the anchor relative to the screen in order to know how much height is available above / below the anchor, so that I can decide where the tooltip should be displayed. It's not only about translating coordinates. Same issue for the X-axis positioning, I need to know the position of the anchor relative to the edges of the viewport, so that I can calculate how much the arrow should be shifted.

Good call! That was it. I had to apply a border-style: none for windows (which displayed a border by default) but I didn't think about testing again on Linux. Thanks!

Not sure, I was using it because it was used in Tooltip.js, I'll test without it.

Bug 1267403 - HTMLTooltip: add useXulWrapper option when displayed in a XUL document;

https://reviewboard.mozilla.org/r/60360/#review58422

Tested with color,cubic,filter tooltips works great.
Also looked at event details and images. Is there any others?

Note that while testing event details I've seen various weird exception.
But I don't think it is related to this patch:
  TypeError: can't convert undefined to object: EventTooltip.prototype.destroy@resource://gre/modules/commonjs/toolkit/loader.js -> resource://devtools/client/shared/widgets/tooltip/EventTooltipHelper.js:293:24

You explicitely destroy the tooltip in this test.
Shouldn't we do this in all tests?
We only call tooltip.hide() in most of them.

tha => that

Also, as for getScreenOffset, this isn't just the screen size. It is only the screen size, excluding OS bars on the screen edges.

This isn't directly related to this patch, but I'm wondering if we have some blinking effects because of this tooltip-hidden toggle when calling tooltip.show multiple times with different anchor/size/position.

While reviewing I was wondering if isVisible() was ever true in this method. It can, but only when calling show() multiple times.

I would rather say:
XUL panel is only a way to display DOM elements outside of the document viewport, so disable all features that impact the behavior.

I would mention why we add this offset.
Calculate absolute screen coordinates by adding back offsets due to OS bars on the screen edges.

This sentence is missing some "to". It sounds more correct like this:
Convert from coordinates relative to the tooltip's document, to coordinates relative to the "available" screen. By "available" we mean the screen, excluding the OS bars display on screen edges.

left += mozInnerScreenX - offsetLeft;
Same for top.

I was wondering if we could simplify the coordinates logic by merging getScreenOffset into getViewportSize.
Instead we would only have getViewportRect, returning all screen.avail{Left,Top,Width,Height}.

Good point, I will do so in a separate patch.

good catch, leftover from the HTML autocomplete bug!

This actually occurs for the autocomplete (we call show at every keystroke basically). I'll work on this in the autocomplete bug.

It does simplify the implementation, thanks!

And also thanks for going through the comments and suggesting fixes/updates, applied most of it.

Thanks for testing! We also have the network monitor tooltips (image previews and request stacks), as well as the font preview. I tested all of those, but you're welcome to double check!

Indeed thanks for the heads up. There is a race condition which can lead to erase the tooltip content before having destroyed the previous tooltip. Comes from two reasons: 
- calling "hide" on a Tooltip not yet visible is not triggering the "hidden" event (early return in the hide() method)
- in markup.js, on event bubble click handler, we hide() the tooltip, then fetch the event info asynchronously and then show() the tooltip. We should hide() right before calling show() otherwise we are exposed to race conditions

Opened a separate bug here: Bug 1284259.

this comment need updates. Makes it so that it helps understanding the following lines:

It might be clearer to apply this `-viewPortRect.top` only to availableTop:
`let availableTop = anchorTop - viewportRect.top;`
And then replace anchorTop occurences by `availableTop`.
It think it makes sense to do that, right?
If you think it doesn't help following this code, let it as-is.

Translate back to absolute coordinates by re-including viewport top margin.

I kept my initial version in the end, because it makes the vertical and horizontal calculations more similar. 
But thanks for reviewing this in depth, really appreciate it.

Depends on: 1285189
Some details for verifying this bug.

Before testing, make sure that Bug 1285206 has been integrated in the version you are testing (as it enables the XUL panel wrapper implemented here for a handful of tooltips). Looks like it is not in nightly at the moment, might need to wait for the next version.

The XUL panel is now used for the following tooltips:
- image and font preview in the rule view
- image preview in the markup view
- colorpicker, bezier and filter editors in the rule view (Bug 1267414, should be in nightly)
- mdn docs in the rule view (Bug 1283454, not in nightly yet)

What should be tested here:
- simple non regression on the tooltips mentioned above, particularly checking that the tooltip position is correct, with the arrow pointing to the anchor
- tooltips should now be able to extend outside of the firefox window -> verifying that Bug 1279189 has been fixed would be a good test for instance. All the tooltips mentioned above should be displayed "full size" and no longer be resized to fit the toolbox dimensions
