MenuItem elements added do not automatically release themselves when dropdown is closed

Open Armored-Dragon opened this issue 1 year ago • 2 comments

While investigating https://github.com/overte-org/overte/issues/588 I discovered that when you click on the "Delete" option from the dropdown edit menu, the delete button will never be released unless you interact with something else. Screenshot_20240827_145213

This leads me to believe that there is a core issue in the menu bar that does not release any buttons when the dropdown is closed automatically. As far as I am aware only the Create App suffers from this issue due to how the menu bar is populated and how Create App listens for the "Delete" key being pressed.

I can not confirm this to absolutely be an issue, further testing is required to make sure this is a legitimate bug.

A good place to poke at this is the Create App on line 2142.

We do have other weirdness related to the menu bar, maybe it is related? https://github.com/overte-org/overte/issues/167 If you are on KDE, could you try setting XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP=foo as environment variable?

Setting the environment variable results in the same behavior.
