Well what casues it: nux::WindowCompositor.cpp:503 SetKeyFocusArea(mouse_over_area_);
When you click on the panel it is not the current owner of focus, so it thinks you want to switch focus to the panel. So it steals it from the hud/dash and gives it to the panel...but the panel can't do anything with it soo you kind of get stuck. The solution is to figure out how to block keyboard focus from the panels when the overlay is open! (hopefully a fix soon). ** Changed in: unity Assignee: (unassigned) => Brandon Schaefer (brandontschaefer) ** Changed in: unity Status: Triaged => In Progress -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1021087 Title: Releasing mouse button outside panel 'close' window button removes keyboard focus from Dash & Hud To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/1021087/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
