Description Stephane Chauveau 2002-10-29 22:52:06 UTC 
Autohide does not work when the mouse leaves the panel
via the its context menu or via an applet menu. 
Somehow launchers and drawer menus do not have 
this problem.

version: 2.1.1

Steps to reproduce:
===================

(1) Create a panel with autohide
(2) Open the panel menu (with right mouse button)
    or the menu of an applet.     
(3) move the mouse out the panel and of the menu
(4) press the any mouse button to disable the menu.

effect: the mouse is outside the panel but it does not hide.
expected: the panel should hide.

Using 2.1.1:
I can reproduce if the steps described above are done quickly.
But anyway, when you move your mouse, the panel hides.
Comment 2 Stephane Chauveau 2002-10-30 13:12:17 UTC 
Not for me. Moving the mouse does nothing.
In order to hide the panel I have enter it and leave it again. 

I see that both on my systems at home and in my office.

Comment 4 Arvind S N 2002-11-09 12:58:37 UTC 
On Leave notify for the panel, GDK_NOTIFY_INFERIOR is received due
to which a autohide timer is not started. So replacing
basep_widget_autohide() with basep_widget_queue_autohide() in 
menu_button_menu_popup() and panel_do_popup_menu() fixes the problem.

        * menu.c (menu_button_menu_popup)
        * panel.c (panel_do_popup_menu): use 
         basep_widget_queue_autohide instead of basep_widget_autohide.
         Fixes #97182
