Description dpecka 2017-01-13 19:04:59 UTC
Hello,

sorry, I'm afraid I'm not going to describe my problem well .... anyhow, I have current up-to-date suse 42.2 with plasma 5.8.x .. If I run stardict application which has (ugly) legacy icon, the icon is displayed but it's completely dead, no reaction from it on mouse actions ...

I reproduced, that stardict and his icon behave both like they did for years - eg if I install some other standalone tray app (like stalonetray), the icon in the tray is working properly like it was working for years (including in kde 4) .. That leads me to the assumption, that something in kde regarding to xembedsniproxy is rotten ...

Please poll me for more info if required, I'm really not good at debugging GUI apps .. If you wish to reproduce that, you can do it with stock suse 42.2 plasma5 and stock stardict, just after installing suse install stardict (reproduced on two separate boxes) ..

regards, daniel

updated summary to specifically mention stardict.

That said, I cannot reproduce this on fedora 25 using plasma-5.8.5, stardict 3.0.6

left click stardict systray icon shows stardict app window
right click shows scan/quit options

that is supposed how it shall work however it's not working like that in here ...

good news are, that it's easily to reproduce at least for suse users (yes I know, I should report it also to suse bugzilla), you just install suse with its defaults (spill some weed around the enter button and let some poultry do the job because only you do is hitting next->next->next ....), install stardict and you have it reproduced ...

regards

ps. and thansk for your support on irc :)

Inject mouse clicks from SNI to xembedded icons with XTest

Summary:
A certain toolkit doesn't register for mouse press release events
because it now uses XI2 only.

Injecting those directly to the window is too difficult, fortunately in
the GTK3 case we can use XTest to send an event. Something I had
previously chosen against using because it didn't work with something
else (can't remember what). I now have a bit of code choosing which
method to use, which will hopefully cover all cases.

Code is a bit convuluted because the xcb version of xtest doesn't have
the high-level method I want to use in it's API, so I just used Xlib
version.
Related: bug 362941

Test Plan:
Ran my usual bunch of test apps:
- xchat
- a GTK3 systray demo I made
- skype (A Qt4 app without SNI patches)

All worked as before

[xembedsniproxy] Fix check whether to use XTest

Because of C++'s operator precedence, '!' logically negated
all_event_masks only instead of the whole expression.
This resulted in the condition always being false and XTest never being
used.

Adding a pair of brackets fixes it.
