Bug ID: 490677
Summary: Mouse selection cannot be released
Classification: Plasma
Product: plasmashell
Version: 6.1.2
Platform: Fedora RPMs
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Folder
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
Reporter: lst_man...@webengineer.com
CC: h...@kde.org
Target Milestone: 1.0
SUMMARY
After long click inside a folder view a selection rectangle appears along with
the sizing and move grab points, then as long as the mouse stays in the view
that rectangle expands and contracts as you move the mouse. If you rangle
one or more icons (they get highlighted) and click, nothing happens, so no real
selection happens. So far no harm. Not sure why yu'd want to select multiple
icons anyway.
Then, if you click outside the view the sizing and movement grab points
dissappear, but the selection rectangle remains. Moving back into the view
causes the rectangle to expand and contract. If you click on a different
location in the view, then that rectangle expands a contracts around that spot.
If you leave the view the selection rectangle remains at whatever size it was
when you moused out fo the view. This is the real issue.
After messing with it while writing this bug report, I found that if after you
have clicked outside the view, therefore removing the grab points, then go
back into the view, expand the rectangle around one or more icons and click,
one of the icons is triggered and the rectangle disappears.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Long click inside a folder view. Note grab points and selection rectangle.
2. Use selection rectangle to select one or more icons. Nothing happens, nore
I suspect should anything happen.
3. Click outside the folder view and the grab points go away, but the
sselection rectangle doesn't.
4. Move the mose back into the view and see that the selectin rectanlg again
follwos the mouse.
OBSERVED RESULT
Selection rectangle remains long after it shiould not.
EXPECTED RESULT
Selection rectangle should disappear when the mouse pointer is moved out of the
view, and only clicking inside the view should bring up the selection process.
