It occasionally happens that tooltips (e.g. on tabs) stop showing. This is not a new problem.

I often notice this together with Drag and Drop being broken (bug 1622107).

I'm using GNOME (Wayland, WR, currently Mutter 3.38.2-4-g00e247ed7, GTK 3.24.24).

  • When there's cached drawing from previous rendering and widget size changes, we can't paint the cached drawings.
    Instead create a new wl_buffer with size of MozContainer and clear the cache.

Depends on D104710

Just had it happen again (Nightly 0abd3454600d); D&D was broken as well.

As in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1880387#c3, opening certain attached dialogs seems to restore both D&D and tooltips. The "Bookmark All Tabs" dialog (Ctrl+Shift+D) worked for this purpose, while "Open File" (Ctrl+O) did not.

Patches for D&D are at Bug 1635757.
Do you mean you see the missing tooltips with the patches above?
Thanks.

btw. what do you mean with broken D&D? It's drag of tab and creating new Firefox window or D&D of some content like text/images?

Yes.

Dragging can't be started, no matter the source. This is the "See Also" bug 1622107. It seems that tooltips being missing and dragging being broken always coincide here.

Okay, let's move to bug 1622107 then.

As for the tooltips - I expect there isn't a simply way how to reproduce it, correct? I'd need a log of that but it may be difficult to get one when it happens only sometime.

Yes, correct.

Can you please test latest nightly under Wayland? A new popup handling code landed there.
Thanks.

I don't remember encountering this for a while. I think it might have been fixed together with bug 1622107.

Thanks.
