Description Ruchir Brahmbhatt 2014-10-02 08:26:12 UTC

OS: Opensuse factory x86_64
KDE Framework 5.1
Plasma shell 5.0.1

Not sure if this is a feature or bug but I just noticed that clicking on desktop area minimizes all windows and shows desktop.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Have one application windows open  but not maximized, keeping some desktop area visible.
2. Click on that visible  desktop area.

Actual Results:  
Shows desktop.

Expected Results:  
If this is not feature then clicking desktop shouldn't minimize all windows.

Is it possible to try with 5.1beta (real version should be 5.0.95 iirc)? 

I cannot reproduce with this version

Comment 2 Ruchir Brahmbhatt 2014-10-02 10:27:33 UTC

Yes, I'm running 5.0.95. Below might help.
* Compositing disabled.
* Decoration oxygen
* Kept chrome, Kwrite, Dophin in normal size, i.e. not maximized.
* This way small part of desktop is visible clicking on which all windows are minimized.
* I had more success producing this bug with chrome window in front. This happens when window has focus and then I click empty desktop area.

If you right-click on desktop -> Desktop Settings... -> Mouse actions -- do you have a mouse action set for left-mouse click?

Also are desktop type are you using? Folder? Or simple image? (Desktop Settings -> Layout)

Comment 4 Ruchir Brahmbhatt 2014-10-02 10:49:35 UTC

Using "Desktop". Also selection dropdown is disabled so can not change. Mouse actions in desktop settings has no action for left click.

Add it :)

It has no option like "Do Nothing". I set to "Paste" as that would do nothing but still it minimizes all windows and shows desktop :)
