Thanks for the screen recording. I cannot reproduce the issue in current git master. I think it's highly likely that a bunch of bugfixing that the preview tooltip underwent recently has fixed the issue. So I'm going to mark this as fixed for now, but do feel free to re-open it if you upgrade to Plasma 6.1 in a few months and find that it's still happening. Thanks again! |
Created attachment 167261 [details] Flickering and focus stealing of the Task Manager preview window SUMMARY Hovering over a program in Task Manager shows the preview window for that program. When you open something else with KRunner and it's added to the Task Manager, the new program fights for possession of the preview window. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Open a program 2. Mouse over that program in the Task Manager until the preview window displays 3. Use KRunner to launch another program OBSERVED RESULT While the second program loads and opens, the preview window flickers between the first and second programs. Once at the beginning of opening the second program, and once at the end as the second program displays, the Task Manager preview window starts to slide to the second program as though your mouse was over the second program (i.e. steals focus?) EXPECTED RESULT Task Manager preview window stays stable and focus (in the Task Manager) stays on the first program.
