Bug ID: 451397
Summary: Hovering over icons in the task manager is difficult
Product: systemsettings
Version: 5.24.2
Platform: Manjaro
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
Reporter: micaeljarn...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
Most of the time, when hovering over an open media player icon to hit
play/pause, I accidentally touch a neighboring icon, and that immediately gets
rid of the current popup.
Also, when the media player is playing audio, there's a "mute" icon on its
top-right corner, and hovering that icon can sometimes also get rid of the
popup.
Attached are some screenshots and GIFs of this behavior.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open a media player
2. Hover over its icon on the task manager
3. Try hitting the play button
4. Accidentally mouse over the next icon on the task manager for a split second
5. Notice that the popup for the media player immediately disappears
6. To work around it, carefully move the cursor first straight up, then to the
right, to hit the play button
7. Now, with the music playing, try hovering over the media player icon on the
task manager, but put the cursor over the "mute" button
8. Notice that the popup doesn't open if the cursor is over "mute", and if the
popup is open, hovering "mute" also closes it
9. To work around it, carefully avoid hovering the "mute" button
OBSERVED RESULT
Any split-second mistake will cause the popup to close, requiring a lot of care
and precision to successfully work with it, and the "mute" button is ignored,
as if not part of the task icon.
EXPECTED RESULT
The task manager popup should be a lot more forgiving, waiting for a bit before
immediately closing, and the "mute" button should also be treated as hovering
over the icon.
