The tooltip wasnt empty in 138367, but as the text was colored in white and the background is in yellow, it just seems like it.

The tooltip text appears in black for me, so i would guess that this is likely a theming issue. I checked gtk3 backend and only when in design edit mode will the tooltip appear, so not sure if that is a bug or not.

Comment 5 Caolán McNamara 2017-12-12 14:06:51 UTC 
I think in this case the tooltip color is taken from the theme, but for this specific tooltip, because its a child of the form widget and because the form widgets are set to be *not* themed that the tooltip itself inherits the don't-theme setting so its painted with non-themed yellow and then text printed with themed white on top
