A screenshot of the problem

When writing a formula (having AutoInput enabled), and typing a function name or opening a spreadsheet function's parenthesis, there appears a tooltip (suggesting function names, or explaining parameters). If one switches to another application at this moment, the tooltip stays, and may cover parts of UI of applications one wants to work with.

My expectation is that the tooltip disappears as soon as Calc looses focus.

Actually, the tooltip stays also when user interacts with other LibreOffice's UI elements, e.g. menu: it stays atop the menu items (covering the text); stays atop Help->About dialog, etc.

Tested with Version: 6.3.0.1 (x64)
