Bug ID: 463158 Summary: Closes application launcher menu automatically when e.g. mounting drive Classification: Plasma Product: plasmashell Version: 5.26.4 Platform: Other OS: Linux Status: REPORTED Severity: minor Priority: NOR Component: Panel Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org Reporter: liem...@gmail.com CC: niccolo.venera...@gmail.com Target Milestone: 1.0 Created attachment 154649 --> https://bugs.kde.org/attachment.cgi?id=154649&action=edit Video SUMMARY When you plug in e.g. an external drive, the notification applet on the panel automatically opens and shows the list of mounted drives. While this is great, there is a minor but annoying issue with it: When I plug in my backup drive, open the application launcher menu and start typing (to open my backup application), the opening notification applet mounted drive list automatically closes my application launcher menu. There is a delay between plugging an external drive in and when it actually gets mounted (and the applet opens the drive list). In this time I can open the application menu and start typing - but usually I am too slow, so it closes automatically while I'm still typing. This is quite annoying, since the - currently in use - application launcher menu should have priority. I made a short video about it (in the attachments). The video start immediately after i plugged in my external drive. Maybe some kind of a priority system for applets could fix this? STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. plug in a drive 2. open the application menu OBSERVED RESULT The application menu gets closed automatically and the notification applets drive list opens. EXPECTED RESULT The application menu should stay open, the notification applets drive list shouldn't open automatically.
