Description torstenrohlfing 2005-08-29 21:08:08 UTC 
Since switching to OOo 2.0 beta, I cannot (more precisely: almost not) access
any context menus that should appear when I right-click on something.

This is reproduced as simple as: start swriter and right-click on the empty
page. Nothing happens. Interestingly, if I type something that has a spelling
mistake and right-click on that, then I get a spellcheck context menu. Also, if
I move the mouse either up or left while I right click, I _do_ get the context
menu. If I move the mouse towards the bottom right, then I do _not_ get the
context menu. This does not work everywhere - in the "Styles and Formatting"
dialog, for example, I cannot get the context menus at all, whether I move the
mouse or not.

OS: I am running Fedora Core 4 with all current updates.

OOo versions - The problem persists in the current versions both from the Fedora
repository (1.9.125-1.1.0.fc4) and OOo (1.9.125-1).

On windows I can not reproduce - Openoffice (HUN/PAVEL/WINXP/m126).

kde or gnome ?, can't reproduce under gnome
Comment 3 torstenrohlfing 2005-08-30 17:07:12 UTC 
Sorry - forgot to mention. I experienced the issue with KDE. I just tried Gnome,
and there the problem is gone, i.e., I can use context menus with no problems.
Back to KDE, and the problem is back as described. (Installed KDE version is
3.4.2-0.fc4.1, which is the current version from the fedora repos).
Comment 4 torstenrohlfing 2005-09-27 01:00:30 UTC 
It seems that this issue is identical to #54757. I was able to work around the
problem by switching KDE's focus policy from "Focus strictly under mouse" to
"Focus under mouse."

SBA->MCI: Thanks!

SBA: issue 39420 is fixed, verified and closed. This should work fine since
Build 680m142 (= fixed in OOo 2.01).

Closed.
