Created attachment 103064 [details] video showing the bug Please see the attached video. The folder view popup disappears when touched by the mouse cursor. I first noticed this bug in Plasma 5.8.5, but it was working for me in Plasma 5.8.4, if I remember correctly. Steps to reproduce: 1. Set the desktop to "Folder View", with the location pointing somewhere that contains one or more folders. 2. With the mouse cursor positioned over a folder icon on the desktop, a small circle icon will appear at the top left of the folder icon. Click this small circle to get a popup view of the folder's contents. 3. Move the mouse cursor into the popup view. Result: The popup disappears when the mouse cursor touches it, making it impossible to do anything with the popup at all. ** My System ** OS: KDE Neon 5.8.5 64-bit (Plasma Desktop 5.8.5, KDE Frameworks 5.29.0, Qt 5.7.0) Linux Kernel: 4.4.0.57-generic
Likely a regression from https://phabricator.kde.org/D3593 I had a feeling I shouldn't have accepted that one, I knew there was some reason like this.
Git commit e80a4b87cfa98708724942794ca6f051974bb5c0 by Eike Hein. Committed on 03/01/2017 at 07:30. Pushed by hein into branch 'Plasma/5.8'. Don't clear hover state while a child dialog is open. Otherwise it won't stay open. Fixes regression from 7585f295363532eff51f7e11ef6b62925117aba4. The bug number referenced in the original change is invalid, but I don't think this should invalidate the intent of that fix. Kai please let me know the correct bug number so I can double-check.
