There are many Wine apps (probably all apps with tooltips) affected by
this bug:

"Note: Tooltips do not disappear, you can disable tooltips in the Preferences -> Interface section in Photoshop."

Title:
  Wine tooltips don't disappear entirely from screen

Status in compiz package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  This bug does not happen with Unity 2D or Gnome-Shell. Same problem on
  both Oneiric and Precise (up-to-date).

  When a tooltip from a Wine app disappear, its shadow remains. This can quickly leads to an unusable window.
  To clean these shadows, I have to move the window.

  I confirmed this bug with Mathcad 14, GeNIe and some others not-known
  apps. It does not happen, for example, with VLC or Steam.

  If you want to test with something free and lightweight, you can try
  with Sumatra: http://blog.kowalczyk.info/software/sumatrapdf/download-
  free-pdf-viewer.html

  
  Attached is a picture of a rather extreme case (made with a non-free app).
