Application menu actions don't seem to work, what am I missing?
Opened this issue · 2 comments
In the application menu, when I click on any of the options (like Exit or New and etc), nothing happens.
Is there anything else I need to install or configure for the application's menu options to work?
It seems that especially the key binding actions are not performed.
Like this one (i.e. ~/.mlvwm/apps/arandr):
"New" Action SendMessage C+N
Or:
"Quit" Action SendMessage C+Q
Tested on:
Ubuntu 20.04
Arch Linux 2022.05.01
OpenBSD 7.1
mlvwm 0.9.4-3
@pierre-rs My apologies for my extremely late response. I can confirm this for ARandR on OpenBSD amd64/7.3-stable, but most other X11 apps I'm using work correctly. I'll dig into this a bit more, but have noticed that some apps require a click outside the window, then a click back inside the window before key events are received by the application, so my guess is that this is a bug in mlvwm, not the styles for ARandR. In fact, manually pressing Ctrl-Q while the ARandR window is active does quit the application.
how are you installing mlvwmrc on ubuntu
