Package: cinnamon Version: 3.8.8-1 Hello Dear Maintainers,
Several users seem to experience weirdness with mouse clicks with Cinnamon, this problem may have been around for years[1]. I'm still unsure of the origin, I suspect the culprit may be related to the «Desklets» feature. I kinda manage to reproduce it. It happens both on Debian Stable, and Debian Testing. So, here is the setup: - Have the «Notes» (@schlorri) Desklet running on the Desktop. Customize it to use some text editor like gedit. Put this desklet to the center of the screen. - Run gnome-terminal. Put this terminal to the center of the screen in front of the desklet. - Run nemo file-manager, windowed not fullscreen, in front of the 2 other windows. - Now, minimize Nemo to taskbar, and quickly click (eventually double-click, this might exhibit the behaviour more often) on the center of the screen (that is, on the terminal) during the minimize animation. What will happen: - gedit will popup, although the desklet was not on the front. Or, - the Note desklet will be in "move window" mode, even though mouse button has been released. You might have to repeat step 4 a few times to manage to get this improper behaviour. Regards, [1]: https://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?f=208&t=237811
