Description MichaelOF 2016-06-18 01:02:38 UTC
Pretty Often after clicking ctrl+F12 to see the Desktop with the intention to click on an icon in the "Desktop" folder (~/Desktop, or ~/Schreibtisch in German) the mouse doesn't get the "focus" for the desktop.

Normal behaviour:
- click on desktop background / wallpaper: Desktop stays open
- "hovering" over any icons in the Desktop folder will show a frame for the icon under the mouse pointer.

"Buggy" behaviour:
"hovering" over any icons in the Desktop folder will NOT show a frame for the icon under the mouse pointer.
- click on an icon in Desktop folder just restores the original open windows. 
- open/run action for icon will not be performed


- click on an icon 

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
up to now I'm not able to see the "trigger" for the buggy behavior, so unfortunately currently not reproducible



Trying ctrl-F12 and click twice or three times will usually lead to a "working" ctrl-F12 again (for a while :-))
So not a critical bug.

This seems to be fixed now.
