           Summary: Plasma has issues handling (hide/move) it's tooltips
           Product: plasma
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Compiled Sources
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: panel-devel kde org
        ReportedBy: mail eliasprobst eu


Version:           SVN r834059 (using Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources

How to reproduce:
- Add an applet, which shows a tooltip (e.g. digital clock) to the desktop
- Move the applet, the tooltip of the clock stays at it's initial position (screenshot in 1st attachment)
- Leave the applet by just un-hovering the applet handle, without touching the applet itself anymore

Problems:
- The tooltip doesn't move together with the applet
- The tooltip doesn't disappear unless you touch any other applet which has an tooltip (task manager, clock, ...)

Possible solutions:
- Hide the tooltip, as soon as an applet is moved
- Move the tooltip together with the applet
- Hide the tooltip, as soon as the mouse leaves the applet handle. Currently it seems the tooltip is only hidden when the mouse leaves the applet itself.
