Description TYY331 2020-11-09 21:22:48 UTC
SUMMARY
When activating and moving thorough the app menu items in the titlebar button the main window flickers in and out of focus, this is especially noticeable on Kvantum themes that have different colors for unfocused windows, also the new Breeze Theme (5.21) is also noticeable.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open an application that supports app menu, like Dolphin.
2. Open the app menu button on the title bar and move through the items

OBSERVED RESULT
Main window quickly loose and gains focus when the sub menus are openend and closed.

EXPECTED RESULT
The window should remain with a consistent focus during app menu traversal
