GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 501099
Program doesn't recognize depressed mouse button when outside window
Last modified: 2007-12-02 19:34:09 UTC
Please describe the problem: When the mouse button is depressed outside the program window, it is not recognized and, upon returning mouse pointer to the window, it is still considered pressed. Steps to reproduce: 1. Play some audio or video file 2. Change current position in the file using mouse on slider 3. Holding mouse button, drag mouse pointer outside the window 4. Depress mouse button 5. Return mouse pointer to the window Actual results: Program will behave as mouse key is still pressed, and it will continue changing the position within the file. This also happens with the volume slider etc. Expected results: Mouse key depress should be recognized regardless of the position of mouse pointer. Does this happen every time? Yes.
