Created attachment 131296 [details] Expected result SUMMARY Pressing 'Shift' to change 'Move to trash' to 'delete' does not work when the mouse is hovering over an element which opens a sub-menu in the context menu. This is slowing down workflow because this happens often accidentally. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Right click on a file 2. Press shift to observe that 'Move to trash' changes to 'Delete' 3. Hover an element in the context menu that opens a sub-menu 4. Press shift again and observe that it will not change any more OBSERVED RESULT 'Move to trash' stays EXPECTED RESULT 'Move to trash' changes to 'Delete' Operating System: Arch Linux KDE Plasma Version: 5.19.4 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.73.0 Qt Version: 5.15.0 Kernel Version: 5.8.5-arch1-1 OS Type: 64-bit Processors: 4 × Intel® Core™ i5-3570K CPU @ 3.40GHz Memory: 15.6 GiB of RAM Graphics Processor: Radeon RX Vega

Git commit 9e4642d435085f27134ed6c8431734dcacf65834 by Elvis Angelaccio, on behalf of Derek Christ. Committed on 23/11/2020 at 22:07. Pushed by elvisangelaccio into branch 'master'. Fix delete action switching via 'Shift' when sub-context-menu is open Switching the 'Move to Trash' action to 'Delete' using the shift key does not work when the mouse hovers a submenu. This fix resolves the issue by using an event filter instead of the key event functions.

ContextMenu: Allow plugins submenus to react to Shift modifiers In 9e4642d435085f27134ed6c8431734dcacf65834 support was added for the NewFileMenu.

Revert "ContextMenu: Allow plugins submenus to react to Shift modifiers" This reverts commit ce3c2435250f5eb8a3c9322359b25c46d2b6fb96. The apidox of setParentWidget says: Set the parent widget for any dialogs being shown. This should normally be your mainwindow, not a popup menu, so that it still exists even after the popup is closed (e.g. error message from KRun) and so that QAction::setStatusTip can find a statusbar, too.

Re-opening after revering the latest commit. We need to find another solution.

Fix shift-action modifier in context menu Before this patch, the shift-action modifier in context menus did not work when a sub-context menu is open, that does not have the main context menu as its parent. The new fix installs an event filter on QApplication whenever a new context menu is opened to make the context menu aware of shift-presses even when a sub-context menu is in focus.
