Bug ID: 363897
Summary: Automatic focus policy should not close plasma applets
Product: plasmashell
Version: 5.6.4
Platform: Ubuntu Packages
URL: https://www.dropbox.com/s/09ujjq7t04sh0hb/dual_screen.
ogv?dl=0
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: k...@davidedmundson.co.uk
Reporter: frap...@gmail.com
CC: bhus...@gmail.com, plasma-b...@kde.org
In my setup, I have configured the focus to follow my mouse, which I find very
convenient when having an external monitor plugged in, and In the video visible
in the "URL", you can see at 0:15 that when you have to move your mouse across
an application to reach some applet (this also happens with the "Add new
widget" that opens up in the left part of the screen) then the focus would
change and the applet closes.
I understand this behavior when you have "Click to focus", however, when you
are using an automatic focus policy (such as "Focus Follows Mouse"), I don't
think plasma components should be affected.
I think applets should close if:
a) You click again whatever made it to open in the first place
b) Clicking outside of it (Unless the very useful "sticky" button is active for
it)
Changing focus, should be ignored.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Configure your system to use an automatic focus change policy, such as
"Focus Follows Mouse"
2. Have a window of any application open
3. Open a plasma applet, such as calendar
4. Move your mouse over the application window (Without clicking)
Actual Results:
The plasma applet closes when the focus changes
Expected Results:
The plasma applet to remain open
