Bug ID: 423644
Summary: Unable to switch menus with mouse at top edge of
screen
Product: plasmashell
Version: 5.14.5
Platform: Debian stable
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: minor
Priority: NOR
Component: Global Menu
Assignee: k...@privat.broulik.de
Reporter: k...@lv.net.nz
CC: mvourla...@gmail.com, plasma-b...@kde.org
Target Milestone: 1.0
Selecting a menu item using the mouse at the top edge of the screen, then
moving between top-level menu items while holding my left mouse button down
doesn't select those menu items. To do so, it is necessary to move one pixel
down before moving left or right. This makes it significantly more difficult to
move between menus.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Place Global Menu at the top edge of the screen.
2. Move mouse against the top edge of the screen and select the left-most
top-level menu item (e.g. the "File" menu on many programs). Click and hold the
left mouse button.
3. Now, still holding the left mouse button down, and keeping the mouse pointer
against the edge of the screen, move the mouse to the right until it is over
the next top-level menu item.
OBSERVED RESULT
The left-most menu item stays selected.
EXPECTED RESULT
The next menu item should be selected.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: Debian GNU/Linux 10
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 5.14.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.54.0
Qt Version: 5.11.3
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
The expected result seems not to occur because there is a one-pixel border
around the Global Menu. This border does not effect the initial selection of a
menu item, but does affect subsequent selections, if the mouse button is held
down.
The workaround is to move the mouse down by one or more pixels before moving to
the left or right.
