Description Quinten Kock 2023-10-16 06:45:08 UTC

SUMMARY
In the new Meta+W overview in Plasma 6, I cannot close a window by middle-clicking on it. I think this used to work in Plasma 5, and is very useful to quickly close a window.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open overview (meta+w)
2. Middle click a window

OBSERVED RESULT
Nothing happens.

EXPECTED RESULT
Window closes.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows: 
macOS: 
Linux/KDE Plasma:
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.80
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.240.0
Qt Version: 6.5.2

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Middle clicking to remove a virtual desktop _does_ still work. Additionally, should middleclick do anything in the new desktop grid?

plugins/overview: Fix MMB and RMB

Both MMB and RMB are broken because acceptedPointerTypes doesn't accept
PointerDevice.GenericPointer.

RMB is broken because there's no "desktopView" object.
