wrote about `occur-mode': I like to highlight the match I'm currently
interested in by putting the mouse on that line in the *Occur* buffer
so that that line is highlighted in green. But then a part of that
line (and a part in the line above it) will be covered by "mouse-2: go
to this occurrence" for 10 seconds. Most tooltips are of that length,
it seems to me.
I understand the scenario, but I am not sure what to do about it.
Perhaps put the tooltip some distance up or down from the mouse
position? Would that be good?
Second example: when diffing with `M-x ediff-buffers', there can be
`fine differences' (highlighted in light and dark blue) in a
`difference region'. Then I often `read' on the screen with the mouse
pointer in the difference region, but actually I can't do that because
/all the time/ there pops up
Would the change I suggested above help with this case?
Maybe this is ediff's
fault and ediff should be changed to be less `aggressive'?
Sorry, I do not understand. What change in behavior of ediff
are you suggesting?
