Version: (using Devel) Installed from: Compiled sources Steps to reproduce: 1. Click date applet in panel. 2. Calendar opens up. 3. Click anywhere on desktop or any application 4. Click on date applet. Expected result: Calendar should close when we click anywhere outside calendar(desktop or any application) Actual result: Calendar only closes when we click from where it opened(date applet in panel or clock widget on desktop).
This is the wanted behaviour. Previously the calendar worked as you want, but, people asked to leave it opened: it can be useful to have the calendar opened while you have the focus on another software.
- I had the reported problem aswell. I tried to "click it away" several times, then that "something" is broken and restarted. - I found this bugreport when I searched for dublicates during bugreport process. - Maybe the concept how to let the calendar plasmoid stay there permanent should be rethought. (rightclick menu, additional button.. I am no useability expert, only a user) I think I am not the only one that is used to "click away" anything unwanted from that "right lower corner". - Should I write a whish or is this WONTFIX definitive?
I think that the problem is not in current calendar behaviour itself, but in the fact that current calendar behaviour contradicts with its design. (I.e. there would be nothing bad in non-"autohiding" calendar, if users would not expect it to be "autohiding".) I filled separate report for this: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=186144
