[Bug 533623] Re: gimp's mouse clicks don't work on pegged menus

 

I am still able to reproduce this issue with gimp 2.8.14-1ubuntu1 on
Ubuntu 15.04.

However, I also tried with 2.8.14-1+b1 on Debian Sid, where the menu
worked as expected after pinning it by clicking on the dotted line. So
it looks like the problem is Ubuntu-specific. (I didn't see any error
messages or other output when running gimp in a terminal related to
this.)

Title:
  gimp's mouse clicks don't work on pegged menus

Status in gimp package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gimp

  gimp's 'pegged' menus recently stopped working (see attached
  screenshot).

  To reproduce:

  * Open gimp
  * Create new image
  * Right click on the image and select (eg) Layer and click on the dotted line (--------) that appears at the top of the menu
  * Click on 'Scale Layer' on the pegged (fixed) menu that appears.

  Results: Nothing happens except the 'Scale Layer' menu option becomes
  selected.

  Expected result: the 'Scale Layer' window should appear.

  This is just an example - none of the menu options work on any of the
  'pegged' menus. However, if you select an option on the pegged menu
  that has submenu options, eg 'Transform' and select one of the options
  that appears, the submenu option does work.

  This might be an X issue, as when you click on the gimp pegged menu
  option, clicking elsewhere (eg on Firefox) doesn't move focus to
  Firefox as expected (you have to click on the desktop or the gimp
  image window first).
