Description muzh 2002-12-16 11:08:31 UTC
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.0.99)
Installed from:    Compiled From Sources
Compiler:          gcc-3.2 
OS:          Linux

I try to organize my desktops according to function.  If a window is open in the wrong desktop I use the rclick on titlebar --To Desktop to move the window.
In the kde3.1rc3 and kde3.1rc5, To Desktop shows up with the names of all desktops, but with NO check-mark beside the desktop presently on view, and if I click on another desktop the window DOES NOT move.  Previous versions of kde(2.x, 3.0.x) have all worked brilliantly here.
qt-3.1.0 also compiled from source with gcc-3.2
Comment 1 Lubos Lunak 2002-12-17 15:14:29 UTC
 I cannot reproduce the problem, and after looking at the code, I find the problem very unlikely 
to happen. Please try to provide more detailed information. Do you run normal standard KDE 
desktop? Does the problem occur also when running as a fresh new user?

Hello -- thank you for your answer.
I run the normal KDE desktop -- Keramik style, compiled from sources 
KDE-3.1rc5.
I have never had problems such as this with Kde-3.0.x or earlier -- but I have 
just had a thought -- is this maybe a Keramik problem? as I don't remamber 
running Keramik earlier either.
When running as a fresh new user the problem does NOT occur -- I can use the 
r-click -> to desktop method of moving windows for the first session.  Then 
the problem occurs.
Hope this provide more light on this problem --

 Hmm. Still no idea what could be wrong, this shouldn't be dependent on the style. Could you 
try it also with other kwin decoration styles (2 others)? What focus policy do you use? How 
many virtual desktops do you have, and have you explicitly changed this value from the 
default? When the problem appears, please do 'ps aux | grep kdeinit' and include the output in 
the report. Maybe then I'll be able to figure out what's wrong.

Hello again --
I have tried this also with quartz and riscOS decorations -- with no change.
Here is the output of 'ps ax | grep kdeinit' immediately after trying to move 
the window thus:

In response to your other questions, I use focus strictly under mouse.
On changing to 'click to focus' the bug magically disappeared! I have tried 
all the other focus settings -- and can confirm that the bug only appears 
when focus strictly under mouse is selected.  A pity, as I like this setting 
--
I have 8 virtual desktops, and, yes, I have changed the names from the default 
to more descriptive names.  Hope we are getting somewhere now --

Comment 6 Lubos Lunak 2002-12-18 11:04:47 UTC
 I wonder how you manage to make the popup menu appear at all - it doesn't even work with 
this focus policy ( bug #50383 ). Is this a duplicate of that bugreport?

I have refered to bug#50383.  I think that my bug report might be a duplicate 
of that one -- only in my case, with focus strictly under mouse selected, the 
pop-up menu DOES appear.  It just doesn't work -- I have just tried the other 
functions (move, minimize, shade etc) and none of them work.
