Feature Request: Disable/Hide Tooltips #1108

Open Scotty-Trees opened 4 years ago

Scotty-Trees commented 4 years ago

Greetings, and great extension. I was wondering if it'd be possible to add an option to disable/hide the tooltips when hoovering the mouse over icons in the dock? Like when hoovering the mouse over say Firefox, the tooltip pops up saying "Firefox" and I would love to see a feature that just gets rid of that so when you hoover the mouse over an icon, it doesn't show anything.

Please let me know if this could be implemented or if it gets a hard pass. Thank you for your time.

+1 vote for this feature request. On my RHEL8.4 client the tool-tips get 'stuck' after hovering (even accidentally!) and I have to hover over them again to get rid of them which is a little frustrating. Overall I love the dash to dock launcher and use it regularly for work every day, so thanks for all your work on this, much appreciated.

As a quick hack: Edit the file ~/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions/dash-to-dock@micxgx.gmail.com/appIcons.js

Replace the function at line 622 (shouldShowTooltip()) with the below:

    shouldShowTooltip() {
        return false
    }

Save and reload gnome-shell or log back out/back in. Any updates will undo this.
