Flashing tool tips

davidbuck
VisualWorks NC 7.7.  OS: Windows 7 (But likely occurs on XP and Vista as
well):

Assumption: Task bar is at the bottom of the screen.

Open a workspace and maximize it to full-screen size.  Move your cursor
to the middle of the status bar at the bottom of the workspace.  The
tool tips window opens but flashes like crazy.

Re: Flashing tool tips

Dave Stevenson-3
Attached is a resolution Cincom is working on. However, I notified Cincom that the first expression of #reaperFrameExited:
    view notNil
 
is insufficient to guard against the case where the view has been closed. In our application, pressing the delete key can close the view, and if the tooltip is still open it crashes unless we improve the guard clause like so:
    (view notNil and: [view isOpen])
 
This is a work in progress - use at your own risk - but with the above change it seems to be behaving well for us.
