Description Thomas Lange 2012-07-13 02:59:45 CEST
If you rename a file on the desktop by right-clicking,
a context menu and a rename dialog pop up.

The context menu is as long as the dialog visible
but is should be hidden immediately after the mouse click.

This bug is only occuring if you rename a file placed on the desktop.

Reassigning to Xfdesktop.

Hi Thomas,

I can't reproduce, does it always happen? Can you provide a screencast?

Thank you,
Mike
Comment 2 Thomas Lange 2012-07-15 21:32:48 CEST
A screencast showing the problem is attached.
And yes, it happens all the time.

However I've noticed this bug can't be reproduced
if the XFCE compositor is enabled.

Adding the attachment fails, strange.

Hi Thomas, 

Thanks for the information, I can myself now reproduce the bug when the compositor is disabled.

Regards,
Mike

Hold the cursor grab when presenting the menu

Rewrite how key press and release events are handled so that the
right-click menu appears more consistently and will disappear when
any spawned dialogs are closed.
Please test the patch and let me know if it fixes the issue. Thanks.
Comment 7 Thomas Lange 2013-08-26 13:53:16 CEST
Unfortunately your patch does not fix this bug, I've applied it on 4.10.2.

Use async functions when working with the dbus filemanager

Sorry about that. Please let me know if this patch fixes it without causing any regressions. I tried it in both master and 4.10.2.
Comment 9 Thomas Lange 2013-08-26 20:52:15 CEST
Thank you, the second patch is fine. I haven't noticed any regressions.
Will this patch make it into 4.12?
Comment 10 Thomas Lange 2013-08-27 01:40:00 CEST
