Description kdebugs 2005-09-20 08:50:33 UTC

Version:           4.4 (using KDE 3.4.2 Level "b" , SUSE 9.3 UNSUPPORTED)
Compiler:          gcc version 3.3.5 20050117 (prerelease) (SUSE Linux)
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.11.4-21.9-default

Hi,

When I open an text file on an ftp server a message windows with an progress bar appears, which gets the focus. When the tranfer is completed the focus should get back to the main window.

Does this still happen with current KDE versions? Thought there are no longer such popups.

Comment 2 Matt Jones 2012-11-01 03:32:15 UTC

I can confirm that this issue still exists in kate on Fedora 17 (kate version 4.9.2).  The pop-up only occurs when opening and closing remote files.  I experience it frequently when editing files remotely via sftp.  I run kate under Gnome rather than KDE I don't know if that would have any impact.

Comment 3 Christoph Cullmann 2012-11-01 12:33:25 UTC

ok, then reopen ;)

Comment 4 Matt Jones 2012-11-01 14:18:20 UTC

To add some further clarification.  The pop-up progress bar for remote files seems to be time based.  If I open a small file that only takes a few milliseconds to open then no pop-up happens and there is no focus issue.  However, if I open larger files via sftp (or any file on a slow connection) a pop-up dialog appears after a second or so and then I run into the focus problem.  The save process for remote files has a similar behavior.  I personally notice it more with saving files because that process almost always seems take a few seconds causing a pop-up with the same focus issue while opening files it is only really with large files.

inline display that a file is still loading
threshold: show it after one second, if still not done, to avoid ugly flicker

no dialogs, no focus loss ;)
