I have tested this on two systems (Manjaro and Neon Unstable). This issue only occurs when no window is in focus. If a window is open and not in focus, this issue will still occur. You can test this in Plasma Wayland, the sticky notes widget will not restore focus to a window after being closed.

Comment 7 Mosin 2020-05-04 21:41:50 UTC

I have done some more testing and discovered that this bug also happens if any plasmashell window is focused such as notes settings. Since the desktop and panels all belong to plasmashell this makes sense. Also using configuring a keyboard shortcut to launch notes also results in this bug.

Crippled Notes widget

I can also confirm this with my Manjaro KDE/Plasma. If I login and don't open any window, then directly click the Notes widget, it opens normally anytime I'll click on it during that session... but if I log out and log in again, open a few windows and THEN click the Notes widget, it becomes crippled as per attachment above.

set AcceptingInputStatus flag only when the text is in the panel

when the applet is a popup don't set AcceptingInputStatus, because
this would give the panel focus, closing the popup
