The circle is drawn below the drop-down menus (Cinnamon desktop environment) #14
Comments
Hey Leonardo, Sorry for the late reply. Do you encounter the issue on all dropdown menus (regardless of application)? Does the issue also affect "regular" menus? |
Hi, I don't know what is a "regular" menu. I use cinnamon (in Debian sid) and I am referring to every drop-down menu that exists in any application. My workaround has been to add "XRaiseWindow(dpy, win);" at various points in the program. That solves 95% of the cases. |
Ah, good hint. I meant menus that open from the menu bar or via right-click. With dropdown you mean those from GUI elements where you can choose from a list, right? - do you know if that's for GTK as well as for QT applications? |
"from the menu bar or via right-click" <--- those are what I mean It happens to me with the gimp menus (gtk) |
I would like to thank you for your 'highlight-pointer' program, I think it will be useful to me.
I have only encountered one small inconvenience. The circle is drawn below the dropdown menus (I'm using the cinnamon desktop environment on Debian Sid).
I do not have enough knowledge to evaluate the source code file, 'highlight-pointer.c', but I suspect the key is in the "redraw" function...
I wonder if a "simple" modification to that file would be possible (to plot the circle on top of anything else, except the mouse pointer). Would you know what I should modify to achieve that goal?
Thank you
Leonardo
