you cannot choose the grub entry after long pressing the "restart computer" button in the shutdown interface. It is possible to select them but not to click on them or hit Enter. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. have a computer with more than one choice of OS, with a grub menu to select from them 2. reboot KDE from a logged-in session; click and hold the "Reboot computer" button until the grub choices appear 3. observe that the various grub choices are not actually selectable Actual Results: the grub choices are not clickable or selectable with <Enter> Expected Results: It used to be possible to select one of the choices to directly boot to that grub entry Workaround: log out normally, then reboot to the grub line of choice from KDM, works as expected
same here as a side note: in RC2, when the mouse was hovering an item it was not shown as "selected" but clicking on it worked

*** Bug 305053 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
actually, this bug should be extended to the other options in the shutdown dialogue, i.e. holding the "shutdown" option shows the currently unclickable "suspend-to-ram" and "suspend-to-disk" items additionally, pre4.9 you cuold hold down the shutdown/reboot button, wait for the dropdown dialogue and release the mouse button on the action you wanted to be executed - this is now not possible anymore...
"Turn Off Computer > Suspend to RAM" still not working here.

there is an onReleased slot but the onPressed event that has to preceed it is from a different window (the shutdown dialog window) not the menu window, so the onReleased is never emited by the menu item.
hmm, ok - I guess, we'll have to wait for new QML versions to solve that one... What about including the menu items, that currently only show after long-pressing the button, into the shutdown dialogue. For restart, there will probably be too many entries since the user can add as many grub entries as he wants. But for shutdown, i.e. "suspend-to-ram", "suspend-to-disk", there are only two and the use of them is not so uncommon. I'd therefore propose to promote them to the shutdown dialogue itself. Visually, they could appear as sub-items of "shutdown", i.e. a little bit shifted to the right and smaller than the big ones. Alternatively, instead of long-pressing, there could be an arrow to the right side of the "shutdown"/"restart" buttons which immediately shows the drop-down options. Accessing them this way would be much faster.
I already tested that before doing the current implementation and it was quite ugly. The fact that they are not so common is probably the reason they were hidden in a submenu in the first place.

I have stumbled over this, too: >additionally, pre4.9 you cuold hold down the shutdown/reboot button, wait for the dropdown dialogue and release the mouse button on the action you wanted to be executed - this is now not possible anymore... will that be fixed in 4.9.2? For now there are two problems: a) it is not possible to click on the little arrow to show the submenu, the shutdown-action is executed (instead of the wanted sleep option) b) even if I hold the button and wait, the submenu is shown , but I cannot select any entries: i have to release and only then are able to choose. I think you should not wait for qt fixing this but revert to the previous dialog.

No, it will not because it seems QML does not support that. > For now there are two problems: > > a) it is not possible to click on the little arrow to show the submenu, the > shutdown-action is executed (instead of the wanted sleep option) Are you refering to the white arrow pointing down that indicates that the button contains a context menu? I haver said that clicking on it would trigger a menu and it is also too small to click. In 4.9.1 you can click on the button's icon to trigger the context menu. > b) even if I hold the button and wait, the submenu is shown , but I cannot > select any entries: i have to release and only then are able to choose. As I said this seems to be a limitation in QML. Unless someone tells me how to implement this I do not see this working anymore. > I think you should not wait for qt fixing this but revert to the previous > dialog. Sorry, this is not going to happen.
