I'm using the Bullseye distribution generated with the pi-gen tool on a Raspberry Pi 4, where I use a Python application with a graphical interface.
I found a solution online to hide the tooltip that appears when I click on every desktop icons.
Unfortunately, with the latest versions of Debian Bullseye, the solution I found no longer works. When I launch the application from its icon, the tooltip remains visible above the application without ever disappearing.
This is really annoying.
Currently, with the version of libgtk-3-0:arm64 3.24.24-4+rpt12+deb11u2 I'm using, the previous solution has stopped working.
Unfortunately, I can't go back to the previous version, and after checking, this appears to be the latest working version.
Do you know an alternative solution that could help me resolve this issue?
