I'm using 1.94 now. The OSD is not a different button in the taskbar now, so that part is fine.

However, it steals the whole desktop. I mean, whenever the OSD is visible now, you cannot click anything on the desktop since it seems there is a full-screen invisible layer on top of all windows when the osd is present.

You can easily try it. Just go to settings, put a check into the "Enable OSD" checkbox. Then the OSD appears to select a position for it on the screen. You cannot click anything until you press esc to get the OSD disappear.

I've mentioned this bug report on #kde-windows. Here is the reply I got:

11:27 < _Brandon_> markey: the osd is working fine here, I've compiled amarok yesterday


What gives?

hm, I remember that bug, but at the moment it seems to work on msvc compiler too.
There are some focus problems when editing the osd - but those should go into a different bug.
So I ask you to update your amarok copy and reopen this bug if it still persists for you in the newer versions >= 1.94.

Rather than fixed this should probably be marked as duplicate of bug #183186 which actually contains the fix.
Comment 7 Eduard Sukharev 2009-06-18 15:31:06 UTC
