Also, when reducing animation speed and moving the mouse fast to any category on the list, or any application in the grid, during the opening of Kicker, may hovering the wrong category until the mouse is moved. Checking every ~1s the position of the mouse, or once Kicker has finished the opening animation, would ensure the correct category/application is hovered by the cursor. I'm afraid the issue reported in the description is intentional. We got bug reports about it being weird to immediately switch the category based on the cursor position before it's moved at all. |
Created attachment 158956 [details] Cursor on "Settings" doesn't select this category after re-opening Kicker SUMMARY When hovering (with mouse) a category item (on right) or in the apps grid, then closing kicker with Escape key (without moving cursor) then opening again with Meta key, the category selected is "Favourites" and the first app in the grid is hovered, ignoring mouse position. The tooltip of the app below the cursor is shown even if the app is not hovered. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Open Kicker, move the mouse cursor above any app (but not the first) in the grid, or on any category. Then don't move mouse. 2. Close Kicker with Esc (cannot reproduce it using Meta key) 3. Re-open Kicker with Meta key OBSERVED RESULT The category selected is always "Favourites", and the first app in the grid is hovered. EXPECTED RESULT If the mouse is on a category, it should be selected. If the mouse if on a app in the grid, this app should be hovered.
