This is an odd rendering bug, and kind of speaks for itself. It usually changes after I hover over something else that displays a tooltip. Sometimes it's blank, and other times it displays the text of some other tooltip, only stretched out.

What window manager are you using? I cannot reproduce with Xubuntu 12.10

DDarthBrandon 2013-01-22 github

I'm using KDE 4.8.5 on Kubuntu 12.04 64-bit.

I can't repro either. This is more likely related to the graphics driver than window manager, but it's hard to say for sure what's going on.

It doesn't always happen. Sometimes to make it work I have to click off of TF2 and then back. It doesn't seem to happen on L4D2 or Portal 2 workshop tooltips, and some TF2 ones don't seem to have any problem. And with the ones that do have a problem, you sometimes have to scroll the page a bit and fuss around with other tooltips to make it really show up wrong.

On this particular one, if you move the mouse around the image while the tooltip is displayed, sometimes the tooltip background goes all weird.

Is this still active?

DDarthBrandon 2013-11-05 github

No, this has been fixed for a while. Thanks. :)
