Bug ID: 483229
Summary: Unable to click background app/window to foreground
using mouse
Classification: Plasma
Product: Active Window Control
Version: unspecified
Platform: Neon
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: minor
Priority: NOR
Component: General
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
CC: [email protected]
Target Milestone: ---
I apologize if this isn't the right place to put this.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Load multiple, different apps on desktop (e.g. Chrome, Firefox, PuTTY,
Remmina, etc)
2. Left-click on one of the background apps to try and bring it to foreground
OBSERVED RESULT
Under most circumstances, I am not able to use the mouse to take the background
app/window and bring it to be the foreground app/window. Also not able to
bring it to foreground by clicking on the top, bottom, or side border. Just my
observation, but the only time I seem to be able to make it work is if there is
some type of written text in the area where I clicked.
EXPECTED RESULT
This functionality has worked with Windows since I can remember, and I can
certainly recreate it with Windows 10 and 11.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: KDE 6 (also able to recreate in previous versions of KDE 5)
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 6.0
KDE Frameworks Version: can provide more specifics if needed
Qt Version: can provide more specifics if needed
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I submitted this using my work PC running Windows 11 - if more specific details
are needed, just let me know and I'll provide it on my home laptop.
