Description Andrey CLA 2011-07-20 04:02:26 EDT 
Build Identifier: I20110613-1736

This is quite specific UI glitch. I've got two-monitor setup. My two screens have different resolutions. The laptop is 1366x768, the external monitor is 1680x1050. This weird behaviour begins happening at the point where the external monitor is "higher" than the laptop monitor. The behaviour is
very consistent, although it only happens on my large 22 inch external monitor,
never on my small 15 inch laptop screen.
I'll attach screenshots showing the problem
I'll attach screenshots

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Set up two monitors with different resolutions
2.Hover mouse over a marker
3.See glitches

This attachment shows how my monitors are set up. Note that the laptop monitor
is virtually aligned to the bottom of my large, external monitor. So the top
edge of the smaller monitor is where this weird tooltip behaviour begins.

This attachment shows Eclipse in a non-full-screen window moved up just
slightly on the screen to begin showing the edge case. Notice how the tooltip
appears in the correct location, but cuts off the floating window where the
smaller monitor's Y resolution ends.

This attachment shows a non-full-screen Eclipse window moved up even further.
Now the bottom edge of the floating tooltip appears at the top of the screen
(not the top of the Eclipse window).
