f.trott: ping - do you plan to review the patch?
Comment 5 MWJames 2013-03-13 12:17:34 UTC
Wow ... already forgot about this one ...

The question would be if jquery.tipsy is the right tool. For example, when having a small note or sentence it certainly is a neat and clean solution (that was what I first thought when changing the tooltip in SMW but it became apparent that with the need for a more controlled user interaction jquery.tipsy was not the right choice which in the end was the reason SMW is now using qtip2).

If you think jquery.tipsy is worth it, I'll give it a shot and post it into gerrit.
Comment 6 s7eph4n 2013-03-13 12:28:01 UTC
I actually already had a patch for this (https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/10986/), but abandoned it, because tipsy also has its limitations, e.g. when it comes to tooltips near the window borders or in very small windows.

Should we close this bug?
Comment 7 MWJames 2013-03-13 12:33:25 UTC
In this case we retire ...
