Hi Allen,

I've had a few looks at a bug I raised in 2011 - "
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=275455 The KMyMoney selector list
is not moved when the dialog it belongs to is moved ", without really
getting anywhere.
More recently, I also found that a similar issue affecting the category
selector when editing a transaction, so I had another go.
It appears that the drop-down list is not correctly anchored to its
parent, but I couldn't find a way to resolve that, although I did write
a mickey-mouse program where the tree widget was built into the UI, so
that approach could be a possible solution.
Another way was to hide the drop-down if the focus was lost, so it
couldn't be left behind. Eventually, I got this to work, although it
requires the user to hit the arrow button again to regain the drop-down.
(To Thomas) I realise that your time is restricted, but wondered if this
latter approach might be acceptable? Obviously, this is not a major
issue, but it keeps nagging me.
How about adding an eventfilter to the dropdown and install it with the
parent. This way, you could react on move events and move the drop down as
well. Does that make sense to you?
Hi Thomas
I'm still looking at this! I'd got to the point of hiding the drop-down
if the mouse moves outside of the drop-down, but I want that not to
happen until there is a mouse click, but haven't achieved that yet. I
haven't got the mouse click from KCategoryReassignDlg to be recognised
by kMyMoneyCompletion.
Cristian suggested modeling on the payee, but to me that is a totally
different beast.
I actually installed an event filter in KCategoryReassignDlg last night
but I've not finished that yet. Not quite got my head around that yet,
but it's good experience (I hope).
I have a hospital appointment shortly so hope to get back on the case later.
Thanks for the response.
Allan
