I'm afraid this was an intentional change for the Task Manager. If you want to go back to the way things were before, you can disable *all* panel widget tooltips in System Settings > General Behavior > uncheck "Show informational tooltips on hover". |
Created attachment 178635 [details] popup for "alternative widgets" blocking use of color picker gadgets *** is a bug for me as i do not know how to disable the on-hover effect. *** Hovering mouse near taskbar items causes an always on top accidental modal popup to visually block my use of focussed foreground application - see screenshot. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. I was running "paru" by itself a bit recently i don't remember changing or asking for this popup to appear I usually disable the "show app thumbnail on hover" etc. OBSERVED RESULT Normally closing the popup is only possible by clicking [x] at top right but this is undesirtable as I wish to keep the window open. :) EXPECTED RESULT I have all on mouise hover popups (except tooltips) disabled for the taskbar.
