icon-canvas-item: make sure to reset the default cursor ond destruction (2.56 KB, patch)

Description Martin West 2005-09-01 12:09:28 UTC 
Please describe the problem:
if the hand pointer is shown over an icon, then alt- <- is pressed, the
preceding page may not have an icon under the pointer, and yet the hand remains
until it is rolled over another icon.

Steps to reproduce:
1. navigate to an folder with few items in it, so there is background space
2. navigate directly to a full folder and leave pointer over an icon
3. press back


Actual results:
hand pointer remains even if it is over blank space

Expected results:
it should revert to being the normal pointer when not over an icon

Does this happen every time?
yes, and i've seen it when doing other task, probably with keyboard shortcuts.

Comment 1 Christian Neumair 2005-09-01 22:59:16 UTC 
Thanks for your bug report! The relevant code is in
src/file-manager/fm-list-view.c, which only updates the hover path on
motion_notify_callback. We could move the whole
 if (click_policy_auto_value == NAUTILUS_CLICK_POLICY_SINGLE) {

into an extra function, which ought to be called on various changes to the
model, for instance "row-collapsed" and "row-expanded". CCing Dennis and Paolo,
since file-roller and gnome-search-tool contain duplicated code. I'm not sure
whether it is usually relevant for you, but if changes can happen on the fly to
your models, you should update the hover paths, at least on "row-changed",
"row-deleted" and "row-inserted".
Comment 2 Dennis Cranston 2005-09-02 00:24:14 UTC 
I tested gnome-search-tool, and it is not affected by this bug.
Comment 3 Teppo Turtiainen 2007-02-12 18:38:52 UTC 
Bug 315023, bug 394662 and bug 405447 are probably related/duplicates.

icon-canvas-item: make sure to reset the default cursor ond destruction

We might be destroyed while hovering while in single-click mode, so make
sure the default cursor is always cleared when finalizing, if we didn't
get a leave event.

Pushed to master.
