Bug ID: 453271
Summary: Certain methods of mouse movement break canvas input
usage, for example by using xdotool
Product: krita
Version: 5.0.6
Platform: Appimage
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Shortcuts and Canvas Input Settings
Assignee: krita-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: tomtomtomreportin...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
In Krita 5.0.5 and 5.0.6, using xdotool
(https://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/trusty/man1/xdotool.1.html) to move the
mouse will break canvas input usage, until the dockers/menus are interacted
with or alt-tab is used. It's possible this is related to other cases of canvas
input breakage, for example as described in
https://old.reddit.com/r/krita/comments/ufw4x3/krita_506_shift_space_and_mouse_right_click/
, especially as this breakage does NOT occur in Krita 5.0.2.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
0. Install xdotool
1. Create an executable bash script with the following code:
#!/bin/bash
# requires xdotool package
xdotool mousemove 1080 700
2. Bind the executable script to a DE shortcut.
3. Move Krita to the right half of your screen.
4. While cursor is over Krita, execute the script using the DE shortcut.
5. Attempt to use any canvas input shortcut.
OBSERVED RESULT
Nothing happens.
EXPECTED RESULT
Canvas input shortcuts should still be usable.
