1514 Description

When trying to pin my emacs to all workspaces, I don't get a menu Minimize, Maximize, ..., Close, which I do get on

Budgie version

budgie-desktop 10.5.1

Operating system

Solus 4.1 (fresh install)

Steps to reproduce the issue

Right click on other applications (gnome-mpv, terminal) gets me the context menu, but not on firefox, thunderbird, emacs. Doesn't matter if launched from the taskbar, or from the command line.

Moving the windows can be done via the icon in the taskbar (inconvenient, but works), and marking them as always on top can be done there, but not marking to be on all workspaces.

This is a tree monitor setup (one monitor, in portrait mode, "dedicated" to emacs), but nothing changes if the window is moved to the other monitors

I checked this on my laptop (same budgie, but upgraded all the way from a Solus 1.1 install), and the menu is not there either (but I never noticed).

FWIW, the output from wmctrl 1.0.7 for the window list is incomplete. Emacs doesn't show up there, (but firefox which also doesn't have the right click context menu does). It does show up in wmctrl built from https://github.com/kfogel/wmctrl which seems the most advanced non-fork.

So I cannot set the stickyness based on the window number with the original wmctrl, but I can with the "kfogel" version. With either version I can do

wmctrl -r :SELECT: -b add,sticky

and then click on the Emacs window to the single instance to show on all workspaces.

This affects me too. Running Ubuntu Budgie 20.04 with Budgie 10.5.1.

(assuming you're talking about server-side titlebars, and not menubars)

This bug can be reproduced by clicking slowly (~0.3 second between the press signal and the release signal should be enough to reproduce, though i'm not a stopwatch)

It doesn't happen if you click normally, but the bug will happen to people with disabilities, great age, weird or broken pointing devices, or just unusual habits with their mouse

edit: reproduced using Solus 4.1 with Budgie 10.5.1
