Bug ID: 462750
Summary: File Dialog ignores modal flag
Classification: Plasma
Product: xdg-desktop-portal-kde
Version: 5.26.3
Platform: Neon
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
Reporter: xanoneo+kdeb...@gmail.com
CC: aleix...@kde.org, jgrul...@redhat.com, n...@kde.org
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
The xdg-desktop-portal specification allows programs to request a modal file
chooser dialog, but the KDE implementation creates a non-modal dialog
regardless of the flag.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
This happens no matter what the application, but it can easily be seen in
Firefox.
1. In a terminal, enter `GTK_USE_PORTAL=1 firefox`.
2. When Firefox opens, press Ctrl+S to open the save dialog. The dialog should
be the KDE portal one.
3. Attempt to click on the main program window while the dialog is still open.
OBSERVED RESULT
The window is not modal and can still be interacted with. This could lead to
unexpected behaviour in applications which don't expect the application to be
modified by the user once the dialog is open.
EXPECTED RESULT
The window should be blocked from interaction until the file dialog is closed.
This is the behaviour when the portal is not active, and also the behaviour of
the gtk and gnome implementations of the portal.
