Bug ID: 465650
Summary: [Wayland] [Graphics Tablet]: When using a stylus, some
tooltips on the panel do not get dismissed properly
Classification: Plasma
Product: kwin
Version: unspecified
Platform: Neon
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: wayland-generic
Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: guimarcalsi...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
If you use a stylus as your cursor (with a Wacom tablet), moving over some
icons will show tooltips that don't get dismissed properly (specifically
tooltips from app icons, like names and window thumbnails). This bug only
happens on Wayland and is annoying since it interferes with navigation and
activates window previews when the user doesn't want to. Check the attached
video for more details.
To be honest, stylus navigation on Wayland has lots of bugs. If you notice, on
the video, the icons also fail to be highlighted again, and that happens
independently of this bug. Using the stylus to navigate the desktop is quite
convenient since it doesn't require constant switching between tablet and mouse
while making annotations. I'll probably open more bug reports about it.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. With a drawing tablet, use your stylus to hover over an open application
icon
2. Move up, activating the window thumbnail with the movement
3. Keep moving the cursor up, moving the stylus cursor out of the tooltip
OBSERVED RESULT
The tooltip stays open for many seconds until it fades. This behavior is
different from what happens with a mouse, where the tooltip gets dismissed
almost as soon as the cursor leaves it behind.
EXPECTED RESULT
Tooltips activated from a stylus should behave the same way as a normal mouse
cursor.
