Description Thomas Weissel 2012-03-25 17:54:45 UTC

this is something that i am aware of for a long time now.. 
when the focus is on a window (like system settings or something different) and you rightclick on a free area on the plasma-desktop (or any widget) the context menu shows for half a second and then disappears ..  (you'll have to click again)

either don't show it (just change focus) or show it (change focus - raise context menu) .. but this looks like a bug to me..

reproducible: always

I cannot reproduce this issue. What's your focus policy? Click to focus, focus 
follows mouse or maybe focus under mouse?

Comment 2 Thomas Lübking 2012-03-25 19:49:45 UTC

I get  a regular QMenu with this, which also grabs the pointer - even extreme focus stealing prevention and FSUM will not cause the described behavior - unless plasma is run "--nograb" (and as a result the popup will be closed because the desktop doesn't get or looses the focus for whatever reason)
