You have been subscribed to a public bug: On Ubuntu 14.04, the usual behavior of the power button is bringing a dialog with options (Lock, Suspend, Restart, Shutdown) and waiting for the user's choice.
When a Qt application is running, for instance Qt Creator or Texmaker, (but not VLC, Clementine or Skype) and the power button is pressed, it instantly closes that Qt app (http://qt- project.org/forums/viewthread/47632/), brings the shut down dialog and then shuts down the computer without waiting for the user’s choice. I first asked about this on this forum: http://qt-project.org/forums/viewthread/53243/#222409 and reported it at Qt Creator, thinking it was the only application causing it, where they told me to report it to Canonical: https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTCREATORBUG-14030 ** Affects: qtdeclarative-opensource-src (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: bot-comment -- Power button shuts down computer if a Qt application is running https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1426851 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu SDK bug tracking, which is subscribed to qtdeclarative-opensource-src in Ubuntu. -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-sdk-bugs Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-sdk-bugs More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
