| Summary | 0002411: Dragging inside tasks pane of combo view permanently steals mouse cursor from OS | ||||
| Description | Click+drag inside the Tasks pane of the Combo View results in moving the FreeCAD window. The mouse cursor is not released afterwards and keeps the shape of the "hand" cursor. The mouse can no longer be used for anything, causing the need for killing the window manager from a virtual console. Killing just the freecad process is insufficient. | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | Left-click and drag inside the tasks pane of the combo view. The mouse cursor changes to a hand and the entire FreeCAD window is moved. Releasing the mouse button has no effect. The cursor is not restored to its normal state and can no longer be used by the OS at all. Expected behaviour: release the mouse cursor to the window manager | ||||
| Additional Information | Tested a clean FreeCAD install from the Daily builds PPA on Ubuntu 15.10 64-bit with different window managers: * Xfce 4.12 shows the above behaviour, necessitating a WM restart * Openbox acts almost the same, but the move can be aborted by pressing Esc, so needs no WM restart * Fluxbox curiously enough does not exhibit this behaviour Steps taken: * Installed the default open source Radeon drivers - no effect * Installed proprietary GPU drivers - no effect * Disabled WM compositing - no effect OS: Ubuntu 15.10 Word size of OS: 64-bit Word size of FreeCAD: 64-bit Version: 0.16.6223 (Git) Build type: None Branch: master Hash: 9a27d5845f9b60606d316ca6f6191c782b9f761f Python version: 2.7.10 Qt version: 4.8.6 Coin version: 4.0.0a OCC version: 6.8.0.oce-0.17 | ||||

WORKAROUND: Change the QT style to something other than Oxygen. Just a minute ago I unsuccessfully tried reproducing the issue on another (nearly identical) system. Subsequently I have tried changing the QT style from Oxygen to GTK+ on my own system, which caused the issue to go away. Apparently the issue is linked to the QT style being used. |

So do we agree its a QT bug then? Its almost always best to discuss matters in the Help forum before creating tickets, so as to keep the ticket quantity to a minimum and the quality high, but also because more people see it on the forum. |

Oops, I didn't think of posting in the help forum first as it struck me as clearly being a bug. My apologies. I think it's probably a QT bug or even more specifically a QT style bug. So, who should I bother with this, then? ;-) |

|
Can someone test on a more recent Qt4 or even better Qt5 ? |

@mvdoornik devs are unable to reproduce. Thanks for mentioning the workaround. Could you find or could you report an upstream bug to Qt http://bugreports.qt.io/ |
