Bug ID: 483386
Summary: In default floating mode on X11,
widgets/applets/launchers in panel can only be
activated in edit mode
Classification: Plasma
Product: plasmashell
Version: 6.0.1
Platform: Arch Linux
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Panel
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
Reporter: ree...@gmail.com
CC: niccolo.venera...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: 1.0
SUMMARY
If the panel is left in its default floating state on X11, it cannot be used to
e.g. launch applications except by entering edit mode.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Leave panel floating (default following upgrade) in an X11 session.
2. Try to e.g. launch an application, interact with a widget/applet etc. with
the panel etc. locked.
OBSERVED RESULT
Attempt fails. The only way to successfully interact that I've found is to
switch into edit mode. It is then possible to e.g. launch an application. This
also ends edit mode, so you need to reenter it to launch a different
application or use a widget or whatever.
EXPECTED RESULT
Application should launch or widget should behave in expected way when *not* in
edit mode. (In edit mode, I don't expect them to work, so this is particularly
weird.)
