Comment 2 Yann Leboulanger 2008-09-27 15:42:06 UTC 
In fact they work if we right click on them instead of left click. Maybe it's just a typo somewhere?

Strange thing is that they work with left click when menuitems are not in a submenu.
Comment 3 Yann Leboulanger 2008-10-01 06:38:30 UTC 
this makes statusicon useless for users.
Comment 4 Colin Leroy 2008-11-18 15:27:07 UTC 
I noticed the same behaviour with C GTK, but only on Windows. This is rather annoying.
Comment 5 Colin Leroy 2008-11-18 15:40:07 UTC 
a workaround is possible by passing 0 as button parameter in gtk_menu_popup().
Comment 6 Dieter Verfaillie 2010-12-23 21:29:15 UTC 
This still happens with gtk+_2.22.0 and pygtk-2.22.0. As it has
been confirmed in comment 4 to also happen from C, I've moved
this to gtk+.
Comment 7 Dieter Verfaillie 2011-12-21 08:38:25 UTC 
Tested with current gtk-2-24 branch and PyGTK 2.24.0: the attached
test script works as expected: cb is called() both when left and right
clicking the asd -> asdf menuitem .

This problem has been fixed in our software repository. The fix will go into the next software release. Thank you for your bug report.
