Bug ID: 405877
Summary: Rules to ignore global shortcuts ignored when mouse
pointer grabbed.
Product: kwin
Version: 5.14.5
Platform: Gentoo Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: rules
Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: lo...@kde.bt.alestan.publicvm.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
Window rules for ignoring global shortcuts do not function when a window grabs
the mouse pointer. This happens both with sdl2 windows and gtk3 windows,
running under wayland or Xwayland (Xorg not tested). This happens both with
qemu and dosbox.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Create a rule to ignore global shortcuts for qemu
2. Launch qemu with the sdl or gtk backend
3. Click in the qemu window to grab the mouse pointer
4. Hit ctr-alt-delete or other global shortcut: shortcut is not passed through
to qemu
5. Set qemu as the active window but don't grab the mouse (alt-tab to select
qemu)
6. Hit ctrl-alt-delete or other global shortcut: shortcut is passed through to
qemu
OBSERVED RESULT
Global keyboard shortcuts are not ignored and are not passed to the window with
the locked pointer. For example, ctrl-alt-delete brings up the logout/shutdown
menu, F12 opens the dropdown terminal emulator yakuake.
EXPECTED RESULT
Global keyboard shortcuts should be passed to the window with the locked mouse
pointer.
