Is this really caused by the menu bar? In other words, if you hide the menu bar, does it never happen? Just tried it; if you hide the menu bar, step (2) doesn't do anything (i.e. focus never leaves the terminal window when you hit alt), so the bug doesn't happen. Well #2 doesn't even do that here on any of my systems. Are you running a different windows manager or full KDE (kubuntu)? I happens on both systems I use (both running the latest KDE with kwin). BTW the behavior I described in step (2) seems to be common to all apps - so maybe there's a setting to disable it, although I haven't looked. (It allows you to navigate the menu bar without having to use the mouse, so it's pretty useful.) The difference in konsole is that if I do (3) and (4) I can't use the keyboard anymore until I click on the window. I just tried the same thing with Amarok and I can use the keyboard after alt-tabbing back to the Amarok window. Do you have Configure Konsole->Enable menu accelerators checked? No matter what I do on 4.11/4.12/etc I can't reproduce. No, I don't have that option enabled. If I enable it, though, it behaves pretty much the same way. Only difference is that when focus goes back to the konsole window (step 4 in my original comment), it's as if the "alt" key is pressed, even though it isn't. e.g., if I hit the "f" key, the file menu comes down. I tried to record a video of the bug but it's kinda hard to see in the video, since the tool doesn't show keyboard activity or mouse clicks visually... if you think that still helps I can upload it. Same here with Konsole-4.14.3. This might be caused by the "Sticky Keys" accessibility feature (systemsettings -> Accessibility -> Modifier Keys. Closing as KDE4/konsole is no longer maintained. Feel free to reopen if you can still reproduce it with a currently supported konsole version.

But the problem is resolved for konsole 17.08.03 and the consequent KDE packages. |
