Version: (using KDE Devel) Installed from: Compiled sources ... but, interestingly enough, the mouse is the cat. :) after selecting a url, the popup comes up, but if i move the pointer over it, it just hides and re-appears at the current pointer position, effectively making a jump to the top right. one can still "win" by being fast enough. whatever.
I cannot reproduce this. Could you make a step-by-step, and tell me what options you have selected on the General tab? Thanks!
popup @ mouse cursor replay at selection from history prevent empty clipboard NOT ignore selection separate clipboard and selection rest seems irrelevant ...
> popup @ mouse cursor + Selection non-QT application Bingo. Thanks! Could you tell me which application you select from? Thinking............... done Solution: found I'll produce a patch, shortly: When action popup is showing, don't popup new action menu. That doesn't really work anyway.
Created attachment 9818 [details] ugly hack patch Well, the solution I thought up doesn't work. Under death threats ;-): Attaching a ugly hack. Caveats: When selecting the same string twice, the action won't get invoked the second time. The only way to fix this bug and avoid the former where possible would be to track if the clipboard item originated from a broken application (that doesn't reply to TIMESTAMP selection target request, should you care). That change is way too big for KDE 3.4, and planned for KDE 4.0 anyway.
Hi, would it be acceptable to commit http://bugs.kde.org/attachment.cgi?id=9818&action=view to cure Bug 94330: action popup plays cat-and-mouse with mouse According to the reporter (who tested the patch), the actions part of Klipper is unusable without this patch. There are no new i18n strings. Created an attachment (id=9828) klipper-cat-mouse.patch
