*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 22930 ***
It appears that someone gave this bug the header of ...
"GTK+ buttons not clickable if the window loses focus"
The window is still in focus and never left focus. It is the install
window and there are no other windows involved, opened, or even possible
of being opened. It is not a result of change of focus. This bug only
takes place during the installation (asking you what login, password,
time settings, what drive to install to... etc...).
Since it is during the install process... I can not take a capture
snapshot for you.
It only happens on a windows where one can accept the defaults.
Specifically - if this is a re-install then GTK+ will present suggested
defaults for the Time Setting window. My location is New York .. so when
the clickable map comes up ... if "New York" is already given as a
suggested default by GTK+ ... I need not move the mouse at all (to click
the map and select a different location) ... all I need do is click the
[Forward] button and move on to the next install screen...
BUT - because I had clicked the [Forward] button on the windows that was
before the Time Settings window - and had not moved my mouse cursor at
all - my cursor is positioned ON the [Forward] button of the Time
Setting windows... already. Clicking [Forward] now does nothing.
Broken.
I must first move my mouse cursor OFF of the [Forward] button and then
back on to the [Forward] button - before clicking it will work.
I know this is difficult to understand. Let me say it in different
words.
---------
IF (when going screen to screen during the installation steps)
the [Forward] button is drawn under the location of the mouse
cursor...
the mouse cursor must be moved off of the [Forward] button and
then back onto the [Forward] button or the [Forward] button will not be
clickable.
