Bug ID: 393663
Summary: mouse events and menus should be triggered on mouse-up
to give user a chance to cancel
Product: kwin
Version: 5.12.4
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: input
Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: myusualnickn...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
It is very easy to misclick. If I want to cancel something, on windows I can
just press the other mouse button and cancel the mouse event.
In Kubuntu 18.04 we are noticing that it is very easy to right-click and then
accidentally click on a menu item on the menu without even noticing that the
item was selected.
This would be solved by triggering the monu open on mouse-up. This would make
it consistent with other systems that had usability studies and presents
expected behavior.. KDE currently does not exhibit expected behavior, and it
is actually dangerous because unintended input is caused.
