Another related way to get such tooltips that don't disappear automatically is if you lock the screen with a tooltip visible (automatically or through Ctrl+Alt+L) and move the mouse away from the launcher.
I hope a fix will apply to both, so I'm not filing another bug. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/761595 Title: Unity launcher tooltip does not disappear when switching windows between workspaces To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/761595/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
