Hmm, makes sense. I didn't think of it that way. I personally dislike not being able to close the calendar just by clicking anywhere else, since I usually just remember the information I looked up and that way I don't have to aim for the clock again to close it, but I understand why passive popup has it's merits in case of the clock. Problem: we can't just give passive popups keyboard focus, because one of the reasons for passive popups in the first place, was that they don't steal keyboard focus. For the calendar we can just give it keyboard focus whenever we open it, but I'd rather see some more general solution. _______________________________________________ Plasma-devel mailing list Plasma-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/plasma-devel
