Bug ID: 451622
Summary: Cursor remains disabled after alt+tabbing a window
that disables it
Product: kwin
Version: unspecified
Platform: Manjaro
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: major
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: loryrut...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
***
I'm running an application that disables the cursor on startup through the GLFW
call:
```
glfwSetInputMode(g_window, GLFW_CURSOR, GLFW_CURSOR_DISABLED);
```
If I switch window using alt+tab the cursor remains disabled, the only choice I
have to enable it back is to kill the application that disabled it.
***
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Run any application that disables the cursor
2. Alt+tab to another window
3. The cursor is still disabled!
OBSERVED RESULT
The cursor remains disabled after switching window through alt+tab.
EXPECTED RESULT
The cursor should appear back...
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Manjaro Linux 21.2.4 KDE
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I don't know if it can be of any interest, but I'm using multiple monitors (3
monitors right now).
I'm not sure if this is a bug or an expected behavior, however this is really
unhandy when debugging GLFW applications (games) using an IDE. In this
situation I used to alt+tab frequently to switch from the window to the code,
put breakpoints, interact with IDE's UI and having the cursor disabled doesn't
permit me to do nearly anything.
