Description Franz Trischberger 2013-02-08 08:51:19 UTC

I just added this plasmoid to my panel:
http://kde-look.org/content/show.php/AppMenu+QML?content=146098
When I don't have any window open and use that plasmoid to lock my screen, unlocking by typing my password and hitting [Enter] will lock my screen immediately after unlocking it.

IMHO that are two problems:
* No event should get from the locker to underlying components - be it the desktop or a window (screenlcoker bug?)
* A hidden plasmoid should not keep focus.

I could not trigger this bug with kickoff or Lock/Logout-plasmoid.

Reproducible: Always

I am also using the AppMenu QML. Unlocking the screen does work here since I applied the workaround described in Bug 318350 Comment 16 i.e. creating a window rule for "plasma" to not get the focus. So maybe it is a related issue?

Hello!

This bug report was filed for KDE Plasma 4, which reached end-of-support status in August 2015. KDE Plasma 5's desktop shell has been almost completely rewritten for better performance and usability, so it is likely that this bug is already resolved in Plasma 5.

Accordingly, we hope you understand why we must close this bug report. If the issue described  here is still present in KDE Plasma 5.12 or later, please feel free to open a new ticket in the "plasmashell" product after reading https://community.kde.org/Get_Involved/Bug_Reporting

If you would like to get involved in KDE's bug triaging effort so that future mass bug closes like this are less likely, please read https://community.kde.org/Get_Involved#Bug_Triaging

Thanks for your understanding!
