These glitches are troubling me as well. Is there a Bug entered already?

Another annoying issue is time needed to display tool tips. They show up after 2 seconds, which is 1.5 seconds to late. Anyone knows how to fix this?

Have you reported any of these issues at bugs.eclipse.org? It was random chance that I saw this blog posting, so I’ll look into them, but your chances of seeing them fixed are *much* greater if you’ve entered bug reports.

It’s kind of ironic. As a student, I have to use Java, which has a lot of fiddly bits. To deal with them, I use Eclipse, which has a lot fiddly bits. It wouldn’t have as many if I were using it on Windows or Linux. But I use OS X to avoid THEIR fiddly bits.

Fiddly bits everywhere! It’s this kind of thing that shies people away from computer science.

Apparently IDEA has some kind of student license. I applied, but I’m not sure what to expect?
