Bug ID: 450028
Summary: Cursor state leak? Keeps dragging icon after releasing
mouse button
Product: plasmashell
Version: 5.24.0
Platform: openSUSE RPMs
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: minor
Priority: NOR
Component: Task Manager and Icons-Only Task Manager
Assignee: h...@kde.org
Reporter: php4...@gmail.com
CC: plasma-b...@kde.org
Target Milestone: 1.0
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Accidentally click on an application icon in the bottom bar very quickly as
you move the mouse
Sometimes I click for example on Google Chrome's icon (or any other application
that I have in the bar at the bottom of the screen, which I believe is called
the Task Manager), and occasionally it happens that my intention is to click
and then move the mouse away, but I do it so quickly that, I guess, between the
moment I press the mouse button and the moment I release it, I also move the
mouse.
(note: I'll describe expected result first and then observed result, it's more
convenient in this case)
EXPECTED RESULT
It doesn't matter how much I move (accidentally in my case) the mouse cursor
between the moment I pressed and the moment I release, and it doesn't matter
whether I release it while still in the task manager or outside. If I drop the
icon while still in the task bar, I may move it within the task manager, i.e.
I'll rearrange the order of the icons. If I drop it outside of the task
manager, in most cases if not all, I'll be dropping it in a forbidden area so
nothing will happen. If I happen to drop it somewhere where it makes sense,
whatever will happen will happen, whether it was my intention or not, but in
ALL cases, after that, I will no longer be carrying around the icon with the
mouse cursor.
There is NO POSSIBLE SCENARIO where it can be expected that, after releasing
the mouse button, I can still be carrying around the icon.
OBSERVED RESULT
Every once in a while it happens to me that after doing the above-mentioned
action, the icon will remain attached to the mouse cursor long after I have
released it, and I will keep unwilling dragging it around. If I remember
correctly, hitting the Esc key doesn't get rid of it (which, by the way, it
should, even if I still had the button press. Esc should always cancel). I
think I managed to get the icon unstack by clicking again in the task manager.
I cannot reproduce at will. This must be something that happens very rarely. In
only happens to me accidentally, but has happened more than once.
