Bug ID: 448638
Summary: File transfer window does not keep above main window
Product: dolphin
Version: 21.12.1
Platform: Archlinux Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: dolphin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: natalie_clar...@yahoo.de
CC: kfm-de...@kde.org
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
***
The dialog window informing of an ongoing file transfer does not keep above the
main window and disappears behind it when the main window is activated.
***
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Start a file transfer in Dolphin.
2. Move the dialog window into the area of the main window.
3. Activate the main window.
OBSERVED RESULT
The file transfer dialog disappears behind the now raised main window.
EXPECTED RESULT
The file transfer dialog stays above the focused main window.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Operating System: Arch Linux
KDE Plasma Version: 5.23.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.90.0
Qt Version: 5.15.2
Kernel Version: 5.16.0-arch1-1 (64-bit)
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I'm not actually sure this is a bug and something that occurred only recently,
but I can't remember having perceived this as a problem until a few weeks ago.
The behavior described above is especially impractical with raise on hover
enabled, since it is almost impossible to move the mouse into the small dialog
window fast enough without activating the main window on the way and thereby
making the dialog disappear again, so that the only way to reach the dialog
window with the cursor is to minimize or move other windows first. I think that
the expected behavior would be to have the dialog keep on top of the parent
window and be visible when the main window is in focus, and only be coverable
by unrelated windows.
