Re: [Bug 187313] Re: right click (with button release) might activate popup-menu-item
Repeating all the issues and bugs you see in any bug you comment on just doesnt help. it increases bug noise and increases likelyhood that triagers miss the important parts - which is probably what you see here and why you are unhappy about how things go. If you don't like noise, instead of commenting about unrelated Mozilla Bug 312225 in here, wonder why the workaround I've found is a workaround, as well as carefully read correlated mouse bug descriptions. Workarounds and analysis bring explanations to a developer, but the good work I've done will be useless until they read that. I hope you don't call noise what others called brilliant finds. I'm sorry I have no more time to repeat things to get them understood. -- [MASTER] right click (with button release) might activate popup-menu-item https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/187313 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 187313] Re: right click (with button release) might activate popup-menu-item
(Hopefully my description is not too confusing...sorry...I try to explain it as clearly and concisely as possible) I experience something similar, but the behavior and the bug is as follows. By default the context menu when it is displayed, will drop down (to use a Windows' term), to the right of the link (or area) you have clicked in the browser. However if the length of the drop down is too long to be displayed as a drop down, and there is sufficient space to display it as a drop up then it will drop up instead, that is, it will display to right of and above the link. (This, so far, is correct behavior). If horizontally the right click occurs in the middle of the page, this is not a problem. However, if the link is on the right side of the page, then when the user up clicks the right button (mouse right button up event) during a drop up display , then the hot spot of the mouse cursor will be over the bottom most selection of the context menu. As a result , this selection in the context menu will execute and the context menu will close. (The correct behavior is that the context menu should open, stay open, and await the next mouse click.) Thus in summary, if one has a relatively long context menu and right clicks in the lower right part of the web page, then the last (or some other lower) item in the context menu executes, rather than the context menu getting displayed.

[Bug 187313] Re: right click (with button release) might activate popup-menu-item
Its nothing to do with clicking the left mouse button accidentally, not here anyway. The behaviour in firefox for me is this. Right clicking a link can bring several different options, such opening new tabs, windows, (as well as some add-ons like ad-block), and also bringing up a new thunderbird compose mail with the link as the body of the email. Considering this is not in my right click menu its can't be my mouse going wrong. I have found that once it starts it will consistently do the same thing. Left click elsewhere on the page sometimes seems to get rid of it (though not consistently so not sure if this actually works at all). I note that I can right click a nautilus folder while this is happening and get normal behaviour there, and go back to firefox and find the strange behaviour still happens. None of the methods above for stopping it have worked for me and I have found no way to reproduce it as yet. System is P4, so not a 64bit problem, 512MB RAM Dell Inspiron 1100.

slasher-fun, I don't think so. This doesn't happen on the first right-click for me. This happens for the second right click, after I have already right clicked previously, and pressed escape or left-clicked elsewhere. If you scroll up, you will see exactly what happens. I've tried this out many times, just to check if what I've said is correct, and out of all my experiments till now, either the bug doesn't appear, or it does exactly what I predict it to be.

[Bug 187313] Re: right click (with button release) might activate popup-menu-item
I didn't say that you were clickling left mouse button accidentally! I said (or actually tried to say) that, on what I can see when this bug happens to me, it is exactly as if I would make a right click, then chose the closest item of the mouse pointer in the menu. For example if I right click on a link, and if there is enough space under the link, the item under the mouse pointer is the first of the menu open in a new window. And this is what happens what the bug appears. If there is not enough space under the link, then the menu appears above the mouse pointer, and the item is the last one, for me block with adblock. And this is also the window that is opened when the bug appears. Same thing with the bookmark window. So I'm pretty sure that just after a right click, a virtual left click is immediately made, leading to the behavior we can see in this bug. What we should find is what exactly virtually presses the left click button after a right click. -- right click (with button release) might activate popup-menu-item https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/187313 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 187313] Re: right click (with button release) might activate popup-menu-item
@Joseph: Brilliantly spotted. I can reproduce the bug consistently in Firefox like you describe. My Firefox window doesn't need to be maximized - it just has to be near to the right hand side of the screen. @André: Also brilliantly spotted. This happens on mine as well, including on the desktop, and would explain why I have occasionally noticed this bug outside of Firefox. I think it also explains some of the 'random' link selections in Firefox. -- right click (with button release) might activate popup-menu-item https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/187313 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
