[Impact] It's not possible to select the text in sticky notes in mate-applets 1.18.x. Attempting to do it just grabs the sticky note window to move it.
The fix for this issue is provided in the debdiffs attached to the report. Would be nice to have the fix backported to Zesty and Artful, as the issue causes problems for users who use sticky notes daily. [Test Case] Steps to reproduce: - double-click on stickynotes applet icon to create a new sticky note - type any text into the sticky note window - try to select the text with the mouse Instead of selecting the text, the sticky note window will be grabbed to move it, with mouse pointer changing accordingly. [Regression Potential] The fix only affects stickynotes applet and can't affect any other parts of the desktop. Besides, the fix had been tested by upstream developers. The only regression that could be introduced by the fix is the inability to grab and move the sticky note window at all. However, it can still be grabbed by the top part of the window, as before. It worked that way in older versions (in GTK+2 builds), so it's what the users would expect. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1675581 Title: [GTK+3 build] Sticky Notes - Can't select text in note To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mate-applets/+bug/1675581/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
