Popup windows will disappear the minute the mouse moves over them, when the mouse behaviour is set to "Focus Strictly Under Mouse" in KDE. When switched to "Focus Under Mouse" or "Click to focus", the windows behave as expected. This occurs most commonly when I am editing Java code. For example, when typing "System.out.println", type System.<-- and wait for the popup window to appear with code completions, then try and move the mouse over the window. If the mouse is in the space where the window will appear, the window will only flash. It opens and closes right after. With the 3.0m8 this behaviour extended to the popup window that displays the list of files that you have open, but are not listed along the tabs at the top of the code editing window. It became much more annoying at this point because it requires that keyboard navigation through the list of open files. OS: Linux DeadRat (Redhat) 7.3, KDE 3.0.5a, QT 3.0.5 Observed on Eclipse 3.0, m6 and m8, GTK builds. The GTK packages I have installed are: gtk+-1.2.10-15.ximian.31 gtk+10-1.0.6-10 gtk2-2.2.1-0.ximian.4.18 If you have any questions, feel free to drop me an email.
GG to investigate. I believe that most hover windows should have this behavior regardless of "focus follows mouse" but I could be wrong. What does CTabFolder do?
I have the same issue under Gnome. When I setup Focus Mode in Metacity window manager to "mouse", pop-up window disappears when mouse enters it's area. It applies only to: - Code Completion pop-up window - Properties View combo box - Tabs Toolbar pop-up window (opened by small ">>" button) - and AFAIR in combo boxes in some wizards
I have the same problem as Seweryn in the same places in eclipse. My environment is eclipse 3.2 on debian linux using sawfish. I have Focus set to "enter-exit".
Moving report to triage, see http://www.eclipse.org/swt/triage.php for more info about swt bug handling.
This isn't an issue for me anymore within GTK3.20 using Fedora 25 Gnome. If this still doesn't work for some of the updated WMs and is causing your workflow to be inhibited, please reopen and comment below. If not, I will be closing this for the time being as WORKSFORME.
