Description Unknown 2016-07-14 22:47:27 UTC

See video example for details. Mouse is off-centered when moving to a new workspace and back.

This didn't seem to happen when I switched and opened up a terminal, then went back. However, it did happen when I CTRL+ALT+Left Arrow to go to workspace 1 and maneuver around the Firefox browser, and then back.

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open Kdenlive, open project, then go to render window.
2. Go to another workspace, then use web browser (Firefox).
3. Go back to Kdenlive on a separate workspace

Actual Results:  
Mouse position (exclusively for the render window) isn't currently placed where the cursor is: the actual selection point is higher than the visual.

Expected Results:  
Mouse should be selecting the elements that it is hovering over.

Bug discovered while using Kdenlive git master via ppa:kdenlive/kdenlive-master.
Linux Mint 18 x64, Ubuntu base, Cinnamon 3.0.7.
KDE Frameworks 5.18.0.

This issue only seems to apply to the Cinnamon desktop. I cannot reproduce in Unity 7.5.0 desktop environment on Ubuntu 16.10.

Comment 2 emohr 2018-10-10 20:00:29 UTC

Please try with the actual Kdenlive version 18.08.1
