Description Camille Bissuel 2015-03-11 16:37:15 UTC

Times to times, the on-canvas Mypaint color selector (Shift +M) doesn't disappear of canvas...
whatever the event (mouse leave or click), it is always on top of everything.
I can move it by triggering the shortcut again.
The only way to get rid of it is to close Krita and open it back.

it happens times to times since Krita 2.8, but I can't identify how to reproduce this.
It's really annoying because part of the screen is definitely hidden for the session.

please see videos attached !

Note : I use the shortcut via a wacom expresskey 

Reproducible: Couldn't Reproduce




my config :
Antergos (Anrch linux) 64b
Gnome 3
ATI Radeon open source drivers.

Meh... I haven't been able to reproduce it yet :-(

Comment 4 Camille Bissuel 2015-03-20 10:54:17 UTC

I'm afraid it will take a long time... 
I'll try to gather every information I can each time it happen to me... !

Find today that zooming (with middle click) on the advanced color selector docker make the on-canvas selector disappear.
but the bug will continue next time I call the on-canvas selector, until I close Krita

still can't reproduce.... but I have the feeling it happen during long session... when color history is filled.

Doesn't happen here

Comment 7 Camille Bissuel 2015-06-23 13:32:30 UTC

Reproduced finally !!!

So, this is quite simple in fact :
1. pan the canvas (with middle click or space bar)
2. While panning, invoke the shade selector with Shift+M, or the minimal color selector with Shift+N, or the color selector with Shift+I
3. click anywhere, it stays

Note that with the latest gnome (3.16), moving to "Activities view" (exposé) make it disappear, so it's less an issue.

It's doesn't happen with the popup palette because it can't be invoked while panning...
So solving this maybe just a matter of forbid invocation while panning.

Moving bug to Unconfirmed.

Yes, I've seen it happen. It only disappears when moving focus away from Krita.

Comment 9 Camille Bissuel 2016-04-25 08:55:38 UTC

Seem partially fixed in 3.0 : if I click again on the selector when it's stick, it disappear. So an easy workaround, it's really less annoying.

I'm moving the importance to minor

In 4.0, it disappears as soon as I release the middle-mouse button, and I think that's fine?
