show desktop → keyboard not responding #593

Closed Veraellyunjie closed 1 year ago

Veraellyunjie commented 3 years ago

It has been happening for a year (and I didn't use IceWM earlier), with both TaskBarShowShowDesktopButton and KeySysShowDesktop, in a small percentage of uses (not each time), but already many-many times.

Upon minimizing all windows, keypresses stop working. Neither Alt+Tab, nor Alt+Ctrl+h (KeySysCollapseTaskBar), nor Alt+F2 (gexec run command), nor F1 (tilda drop-down terminal), nor any other — nothing. Mouse clicking still works, and upon raising any window, keyboard becomes functional again.

You can test if this helps.

I haven't run into this error yet. Wonder why that is triggered only sometimes.

Me neither. Maybe depends on the exact platform details and/or the applications he uses?
