Description of problem: Tooltips on websites displayed in Firefox seem to stop working after some time when on Wayland. This happens randomly, but happens (almost) every time after few hours when Firefox is running. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): firefox-80.0.1-2.fc32.x86_64 How reproducible: Every time. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Use Firefox on Wayland GNOME Shell session. 2. Wait few hours (do not close Firefox window). 3. Try if tooltips (that are displayed when mouse hovering over some web elements that contain tooltip texts) are still working properly. Actual results: After some time, tooltips stop working when on Wayland. Expected results: Tooltips work properly.
I have also noticed that when the issue happens, tabs with pages in in the Firefox window cannot be dragged and rearranged.
Yes, I do see that too, Thanks.
I just noticed a sequence of actions that made tooltips and tab dragging work again. It's very bizarre, but worked twice for me so far, so here we go... I (unsuccessfully) tried to remove a container: - Opened about:preferences - Searched for "container" - Clicked "Settings..." - Clicked "Remove" next to the container I was trying to get rid of - Got a message "If you remove this Container now, 1 container tab will be closed. Are you sure you want to remove this Container?" - Clicked "Remove this Container" Nothing happens - the container is still there. But, tooltips are back, and tabs are draggable. Of course, for all I know, containers have nothing to do with it, and just opening "about:preferences" is sufficient - but I'll have to wait a few days for the bug to re-appear, so I can try it again.
Just confirming that I'm not crazy: those steps worked for me for the third time. The last one doesn't matter, though - even if I clicked "x" to close the prompt, it fixed the tooltips and dragging.
Upstream bug: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1683578 Thanks for your finding, I think the tooltip window is on some bad state and the steps causes it's re-creation - perhaps some widget three is broken and re-created.
