Description Antti Savolainen 2020-10-20 14:48:10 UTC
SUMMARY
When using the RemoteControl app to move the mouse, you need to click and drag on the empty space to send the mouse movement to the other PC. The problem is that it sends the mouse up event at the end of the drag. This only applies to the left button click. Right and middle buttons are unaffected

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Have your KDEConnect be a connection between two PCs
2. Use the RemoteControl app to move the remote mouse
3. Drag it on top of a youtube video for example and end it on it

OBSERVED RESULT
The video starts/stops at the mouse up event

EXPECTED RESULT
Only mouse movement should be sent as the clicks have their dedicated UI buttons.

This seems to have been fixed somewhere along the line.
