If you follow the discussion above, you'll see that this is the desired behaviour. The tooltip remains indefinitely visible so long as the mouse remains stationary on a node and only hides once the mouse moves more than the tolerance of 7 pixels horizontally or vertically. The tooltip will reappear if the mouse leaves the node and re-enters it.
