Comment 1 ravas 2016-05-17 05:01:12 UTC
I meant widget explorer not widget creator.
I can't edit the previous comment.
Comment 2 Kai Uwe Broulik 2016-05-18 12:11:05 UTC
Are you using focus follows mouse or something like that?
Comment 3 ravas 2016-05-25 18:26:33 UTC
I don't think so. Where can I check?
Comment 4 Kai Uwe Broulik 2016-05-25 18:32:43 UTC
System settings -  window behavior somewhere there but if you don't know about that setting you're probably not using it :)
Comment 5 ravas 2016-05-26 01:22:49 UTC
With plasma 5.6.4 and kde 5.22.0
the problem changed.

1. click the top left button
2. click add widgets
3. click the desktop

Now when I try to select 'add widgets' the sidebar doesn't even appear momentarily.

Right clicking on the desktop and choosing 'add widgets' works still.

I can reproduce the issue. It's probably when I click, I tell the widget explorer to open, but then the still briefly open menu steals focus and widget explorer closes right away.

[Desktop Toolbox] Close toolbox popup before triggering action

The still open dialog might steal focus from a auto hiding panel like
the widget explorer causing it to close immediately after opening it.
