Description fkater 2002-10-05 15:49:25 UTC 
Hi, I use OpenOffice1.0.1 with gentoo-linux and fvwm as window manager. If I
click onto a menu like 'file', then the menu opens, but it doesn't close even if
I click somewhere outside the openoffice window (e.g. on the screen). So the
screen doesn't receive the focus until I close the menu again by clicking onto
'file' again... This doesn't happen to other applications I use (like gtk apps
or x apps).

I've experienced similar problems with all components under Red Hat
Linux 73.

Felix and Paul, thank you for using and supporting OOo.

Duplicated on RH 8.0, RH OOo 1.0.1.  Using Gnome and "raise to focus" 
is enabled.

Duplicated on RH 8.0, OOo 643.

This also happens in Linux Mandrake 9.0
under both KDE and Gnome.

I am not right person for this. Stefan could you please look into
that. Thx.

SBA->PL: Same with src644 (CWS VCL05) on Solaris9 with CDE and
TurboLinux and Sawfish. My findings are that clicking to the desktop
background leaves the menu open while clicking into another
application (a terminal does it) closes the menu.

The "screen" (actually the root window) never gets the focus anyway.
Menus close as soon as the application window loses focus, which is
whenever the window manager decides to move it after office releases
its mouse grab (which it does when you click outside the application).
I'll see if we can close the menus at that time (regardless of focus).

Nice to read this is fixed.

However, I'm a bit curious what basetech01 could be. Is it a future
release? (Please note: OOo 1.0.2, as shipped with Red Hat Linux 9,
still has this problem.)
