Description Łukasz Stelmach 2008-01-21 01:41:42 UTC 
Stickynotes applet does not hide after I click the desktop. This has started after I did some upgrades. I checked in the  SVN but it shows that the applet's source hasn't been update for quite a long time. Long enough for me to have the current version.

However, I have also upgraded X and the rest of GNOME (nautilus?). It seems that install_check_click_on_desktop() and desktop_window_event_filter() do not work properly because the desktop window doesn not send PropertyNotify event  anymore (checked with xev). I propose to use FocusIn event which is triggered when one clicks the desktop.

Change the event that triggers hiding.

I haven't rebuilt the modified applet, just tested the idea with a simple stub programme.

I can confirm this regression, but I'm not sure that your patch is the right approach. Give me time to think about it.
