impossible to copy and clip in kate

SUMMARY
When I try to copy text in Kate there is an overlaying menu that prevents me to do so. I observed this in the konsole too (attachment)

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. edit in Kate
2. try to copy text
3. 

OBSERVED RESULT
There is an annoying overlay that prevents using the copy and clip items from the context menu


EXPECTED RESULT
Annoying overlay isn't there, you can just copy and clip

I totally did a fresh install of the system and to my surprise this strange behavior doesn't occur anymore...

The second menu would appear if you right-click into the menu. Hardware button that has a contact bounce?
Comment 4 PK 2018-10-13 12:24:10 UTC
The two overlapping menu's were appearing on (single) right clicking. After reinstall all is fine now. But I see you're right... I have to right-click IN a context-menu now to have this effect.
It is fixed now.
