Bug ID: 511684
Summary: Pressing "mouse back" sometimes sends the event to
another window and changes focus
Classification: Plasma
Product: plasmashell
Version First 6.5.1
Reported In:
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
CC: [email protected]
Target Milestone: 1.0
SUMMARY
I use mouse buttons on the side of my mouse to go forwards and backwards
through webpages etc. pretty regularly, however randomly I will press "mouse
back" (whilst the focus of the mouse is still on the specified window, e.g.
firefox) but it will bring another window from the background into focus and
press "mouse back" on that window instead
I am not sure if this is an application issue or kde / wayland in general, but
it happens with different applications. I also alt-tab regularly so I am not
sure if this is somehow adding to some kind of "active window" confusion
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open a few windows (firefox, discord, dolphin, etc.)
2. Alt-tab a few times. Press "mouse forward" / "mouse back" buttons
3. Occasionally, focus on the current main window will be lost and another
window from the background grabs the focus and accepts the mouse input - even
if your mouse stays within the main window's area
OBSERVED RESULT
Focus lost to random background application
Mouse event "stolen" by background application
EXPECTED RESULT
Mouse event should be sent to the current in-focus window
Window focus should not change
