Bug ID: 470555
Summary: Left-clicking app icon in system tray does not
consistently open apps, instead it activates the
right-click context menu
Classification: Plasma
Product: plasmashell
Version: 5.27.5
Platform: Ubuntu
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: major
Priority: NOR
Component: System Tray
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
CC: [email protected]
Target Milestone: 1.0
SUMMARY
The behavior of the system tray is inconsistent. Some apps open when their icon
is left-clicked (expected behavior), instead others show the same context menu
you would get when you right-click. The left-click should open the app while
right-click should show the context menu. This behavior should be consistent
for all apps that show in the system tray.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Install and open some apps, e.g. MS Teams for Linux, Whatsapp Desktop,
Bitwarden, Dropbox and many others.
2. Close the app window so it is hidden, but still running as indicated by the
system tray icon.
3. Left-click the app icon in the system tray.
OBSERVED RESULT
The left-click opens the same context menu as right-click.
EXPECTED RESULT
Instead the app should open and not show the context menu (only if
right-clicked should it do so).
