UPP Applications do not accept user input under linux [message #20022]

Hello,

I want to use UPP under Linux (Ubuntu 8.10 64Bit(Generic)). But the problem is, that if i open and close the menu in the IDE, then the programm does not accept input from the keyboard anymore. To get the inputfocus back, I can maximize the window or open some PromptOK Dialog.

I am using the svn 745 (64Bit) build.

The same problem appears in all UPP-Programms I compile.

Hello,

I think that's Ubuntu/Debian bug. When I was using Ubuntu (approx. month ago), I had same problem, sometimes even in other applications not related to upp. I have switched the distro, so cannot help you

Under KDE it works. But there is the problem that if using the gtk-qt4-theme the buttons will be redrawn ugly and that the scrollbars are never updatet. That means they are never drawn correctly. they stay the same all the time.

Now I am using Ubuntu with XFCE. This works for me. But I think, it should work correctly under Gnome and KDE... I hope if this is a Ubuntu-Bug it will work with the next Release.

Please, provide more details. How do you open the menu?

(I am using Ubuntu 8.10 64bit quite often and never noticed this problem - obviously I am not doing the same thing...)

The problem is there after a completly new installation of Ubuntu (+ Updates). It happens only in UPP-Applications and it happens everytime I open a menu. It does not matter if it is from the menubar or a contextmenu. I think it must have to do with the destruction of the popupwindow and how the windowmanager interprets things.

For example the window "Setup-->Environment..." from TheIDE brings the inputfocus back to TheIDE after closing the dialog. I do not know if the same code is used for destruction.

I have tried it with and without compiz. But it makes no differenz.
Also I tried in maximized and normal mode. No differenz.

Using Blackbox I got the same problem.

I do not know if it helps if I post my hardware. But maybe it has also to do with some device driver settings... Cause it seems I am the only one having this problem. But as said before it only appears in UPP-Applications.
