[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

> I've run into another small issue: there doesn't seem to be a way to turn off truncation marks in tooltip frames. Is that correct? This bit of xdisp.c seems to take care of that for Emacs' default tip frame; is there a way to emulate this for Lisp-created frames?

Please try the attached patch (I only checked whether it compiles and
builds on Windows).  You have to add a non-nil 'no-special-glyphs' frame
parameter to suppress such glyphs.

And please test the new behavior for tooltip frames as well.

Thanks, martin
