Description shenlebantongying 2022-04-08 22:58:25 UTC

SUMMARY

When a user dragging the scroll bar or other staff (like screenshot), his intent will be uniquely changing the state of the scroll bar, thus the hot corner should not be triggered when dragging.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Maximize a window with scroll bar (like firefox or libreoffice)
2. Set right or right-bottom hot corner to some action.
3. Drag the scroll bar to the end
4. Hot corner triggered ! And another weird behaviour if you actually try it !

It doesn't make any scene for users.

Tricky problem. We could prevent edge effects from triggering while the mouse is being clicked, but that would also block the feature to trigger effects while dragging files to drag them to other windows.

Maybe we can block activation while the mouse is being clicked, and there isn't a file being dragged.
