Description Mayeul C. 2018-05-14 11:40:28 UTC

Created attachment 112639 [details]
Illustration: countdown is cancelled only on the left monitor

This might be related to the look and feel package as well.

I would have tried to fix it myself, but I am not proficient enough with Qt/qml to easily pinpoint the problem.

On multi monitor setups, the logout overlay appears on every screen. There is one countdown per screen. Moving the selection with the keyboard arrow keys interrupt the countdown on one screen, but not the others, so the log out action ends up happening anyway.

It is supposed to cancel the action on every screen.

It would actually be nicer not to assume that a screen is the primary one, and show the exact same state on every screen, including selection and hover (even duplicating the mouse could be interesting). My primary monitor is the center one, but the selection is displayed on the leftmost one.

See the attached screenshot where only the leftmost screen has its countdown cancelled. (A bit of corruption is visible on the rightmost screen as well, I am using X, Qt 5.10.1, plasma 5.12.5)

Fix Logout screen countdown not cancelling on multi-monitor setups

Summary:
The logout greeter theme has a timer that invokes the current action if
no keyboard interaction has taken place.

This cancel on keyboard nav is broken on multiple monitor setups as even
if a user is interacting with one, the timer from another can still
fire.

Fix is via JS singleton library as the timer is very theme specific. I
didn't want to add anything in shutdowndlg.cpp as it would be breaking
layering.

Test Plan:
Had multi monitor setup
Pressed key on one screen. All timer UIs cleared, nothing happened after
30 seconds
