I pushed your patch here (http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/rev/344832a898ad).  Marking as fixed and closing report.

I just noticed the black tooltips of the octave_dock_widget dock/undock buttons (I rarely used the GUI until doing some development code recently) then searched and found this bug report.  Attached is a short changeset to fix this.

(file #43182)

This is still present with development tip 23991:fcf7543e0d49.  It feels like the fix should be rather simple, as if the correct style for the tooltips is not being propagated on to just these two particular tooltips.

still seeing very similar all black or mangled text tootips on 4.2.0 using the Windows 64bit zip installed package.

The tooltips for these buttons only exist in window because of the extra handling of widgets here. Would it be okay to just remove the tooltips?

I can confirm this.

Interestingly, when the cursor is first over e.g., the main toolbar button "Browse directories" and then over the workspace close and undock buttons, the tooltip becomes "readable", that is, light background but with mangled text (two lines over each other).
This also holds for any other button.

Thanks for your prompt answer.

Other tooltips are black/gray on white background (see sc3.png)

Using the setting dialog, the color of the toltip changes, but
the black background remains (see sc4.png, sc5.png)

Thank you for the report.

  • What are the colors of other tooltips?
  • Does the color of the tooltip change when you are using a custom style for the title bar (settings dialog, pane "General")?

There are two problems with the Tooltips:

1. Tooltips of "Unlock Widget"  & "Hide Widget" are hardly seen,
   see sc1.png
2. If I put the cursur on the "Unlock Widget" and move it right
   to the "Hide Widget" two tooltips overlap (see sc2.png).

This is only in dev version because in ver 4.0.0-rc1 only Unlock Widget appears
