Bug ID: 358328
Summary: Java application systray icon: No context menu
Product: plasmashell
Version: 5.5.3
Platform: Kubuntu Packages
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: major
Priority: NOR
Component: System Tray
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
Reporter: g...@netcologne.de
I am using The UPnP server "minimserver" and its control app "minimwatch" that
is written in java. When running minimwatch it displays an (old style xembed)
systray icon. The right-mouse context menu is the only way to interact with
it. Unfortunately the menu is not displayed anymore in plasmashell 5.5 making
minimwatch completely useless.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install minimwatch. See http://minimserver.com/install-linux-mwatch.html
2. Run it. It will display a systray icon
3. Try to right click the icon to open the context menu
Actual Results:
The context menu does not show up.
Expected Results:
The context menu should be displayed.
With plasmashell 5.3 xembed icons were not supported anymore. I worked around
this by using wmsystemtray. With plasmashell 5.5 this programm does not start
anymore because KDE already has launched a systemtray. So the workaround does
not work anymore. Is there another idea for a workaround?
Another xembed icon (of a program written in perl/gtk) does show its context
menu fine. So it seems to be a problem of a java systray icon.
