Description antonio aloisio 2006-06-20 09:37:49 UTC

Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.5.3)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages
Compiler:          gcc any version 
OS:                Linux

popupMenu_ pointer is deleted only when the the parent panel is deleted or when a panel button is clicked.
Then:
1)When the popupMenu_ is shown, if you click on the screen around the kmenu, the hightlighted item on a submenu is executed!
2)When the popupMenu_ is shown, if you change the hightlighted item, the popupMenu_ is not destroyed (and not disappear)!
3)Every Menu can show more popupMenus at the same time…

This is my patch (Note it contains also an improvement don't necessary to fix the bug):
