Comment #1 on issue 396 by ivan.miljenovic: Qt (and KDE) don't display menu if not on first display http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=396 Does the context menu open on a different display? Here, if my cursor is on a different display then sometimes the context menu will open where the cursor is rather than where focus is.
Comment #2 on issue 396 by luka.stojanovic: Qt (and KDE) don't display menu if not on first display http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=396 No. Clicking on the menu (say "File") does change its appearance (as if it is active) but no menu is visible on either display. Right-clicking on places that should provide context menus also causes change (such as text or pointer mouse cursor becoming arrow, or whatever is appropriate), but again no menu is visible.
Comment #3 on issue 396 by flukshun: Qt (and KDE) don't display menu if not on first display http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=396 i have this same issue. I do think it shows up somewhere, but it doesnt appear to be visible on either monitor. If I disable a monitor however, I'll that menu dialogues are showing up offset way to the right of where I clicked. With VLC its even stranger...some menus will work problem, whereas others will show up at the top of the current monitor with all the entries layed out horizontally instead of vertical. very strange behavior... i have vlc set to float, and k3b is handled using the default xmonad management settings. it may be a general qt issue + dual mon issue, but cant really isolate any consistent behavior
Comment #4 on issue 396 by luka.stojanovic: Qt (and KDE) don't display menu if not on first display http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=396 I wouldn't call it general, because it works OK in Ubuntu in Gnome, and it works OK in Xmonad in, say, Gentoo.
Comment #5 on issue 396 by yhager: Qt (and KDE) don't display menu if not on first display http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=396 I am having the same issue. Sometimes, I can't see the menu even if I am in the first screen.
Comment #6 on issue 396 by nwfilardo: Qt (and KDE) don't display menu if not on first display http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=396 Some of KDE's windows -- though I don't remember if menus qualified (ultimately I gave up on running KDE) -- needed special handling. This may help or it may be barking up the wrong tree. My config had import qualified XMonad.Hooks.ManageHelpers as HMH isKDEOverride = do isover <- HMH.isInProperty "_NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE" "_KDE_NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE_OVERRIDE" isfs <- HMH.isFullscreen return $! isover && (not isfs) myManageHook = composeAll . concat $ [ [ HMH.composeOne [ isKDEOverride HMH.-?> doFloat ] ] , -- ... ]
Comment #7 on issue 396 by m...@enthusiasm.cc: Qt (and KDE) don't display menu if not on first display http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=396 This is not xmonad specific. I had it here with different window managers. Just asked at the kde forums about it: http://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=66&t=93640&p=189255#p189255
Comment #8 on issue 396 by yha...@gmail.com: Qt (and KDE) don't display menu if not on first display http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=396 Same situation here. The suggestion in comment #6 didn't work for me.
