Sebastien: is the panel locked down? In that case the bug won't "work".
I've found the source of the bug -- when you press the middle mouse button the program attempts to begin a "drag" instead of handling the press as usual. The attached patch fixes this (I hope). Some things I suggest checking, assuming that the patch is accepted: * is there a better way to detect if a menu is open other than detecting a grab * is the comment accurate (is there a grab only if a menu is open) * is there a named constant that can be used instead of "2" to refer to the middle mouse button, to make the code self-documenting. ** Attachment added: "fix the bug" http://librarian.launchpad.net/4823640/gnome-panel.patch -- [edgy] middle clicking doesn't close menu https://launchpad.net/bugs/65574 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
