Bug ID: 488837
Summary: Legacy X11 mouseclicks only get forwarded when
keypresses are
Classification: Plasma
Product: kwin
Version: 6.1.0
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: wayland-generic
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
As a follow-up to bug 466448, the behavior of the mouseclick forwarding seems
to be tied to key presses which is not the intended behavior. In order to get
full forwarding support key clicks have to be set to "Always" for mouseclicks
to reliably work, which opens up security issues.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Go to legacy X11 app support settings
2. Set the keystrokes setting to Never/Modifier-only/Modifier + keys only
3. Check the include mouse buttons checkbox
4. Click a mouse button
OBSERVED RESULT
Mouse buttons are not forwarded to X11 apps
EXPECTED RESULT
Mouse buttons are forwarded to X11 apps
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: Archlinux
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 6.1.0
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.3.0
Qt Version: 6.7.1
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
When set to "Never" or "Modifier + keys" settings, no key presses are ever
sent. However, if the "Meta"-only option is set then keys are sent when a
modifier key is held down. Ideally mouse keys being sent should be completely
independent of keyboard keys.
