SUMMARY

After opening a new tab by dragging things from current page, If I select some text on current page, it will leads to the new tab or add a sign to the right side of tabs. I also tested firefox with another compositor(Hyprland), and can't reproduce this bug. So I guess it's a bug on kde

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. select some text or point to a link in current page in firefox
2. drag the text or link to the tabs to make a new tab based on the link or text (Do not go to the new tab!)
3. select some text on current page and press C-c or right click to make a copy request. (C-x or cut also leads to this problem)

OBSERVED RESULT
There is a drag new tab sign on tabs bar, or copy/cut leads to another tab (I don't know why there are two different results based on different tab number.

EXPECTED RESULT
Do not jump to another tab or make a sign on the tabs bar.

Could you share a screenshot? Also is this on wayland or x11?

You might also want to file a bug report at firefox, since this might be a firefox bug.

Thanks for your screenshot, That's what I mean.

This happens on wayland, I haven't tested it on X.

I open this bug on kde side since it can not be reproduced on Hyprland (which is another compositor under wayland protocol)

I can also reproduce this strange minor bug.

Comment 6 David Edmundson 2024-08-23 11:49:01 UTC

Cannot reproduce and would probably have not been a compositor bug
