Description Phillip Heller 2016-03-18 12:59:11 UTC

Description of problem:  Under a gnome-wayland session, the pointer movement within virt-viewer is not scaled to the size relative to the gnome-wayland viewport.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 1.2.1


How reproducible: Happens every time.


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open a gnome-wayland session (on Fedora 23 in my case)
2. Create a virtual machine with virt-manager
3. Move mouse into top of virt-viewer, click to allow viewer to capture pointer
4. Move mouse towards bottom out of virt-viewer

Actual results:

Mouse pointer reappears in shell well before reaching the bottom edge of virt-viewer.


Expected results:

Mouse pointer reappears in shell after moving 1px below bottom edge of virt-viewer.

Early deployments of Wayland did not support the pointer grab behaviour virt-viewer required, which probably explains the behaviour seen. Currently deployments of Wayland now allow virt-viewer to do the pointer grab it needs so it is expected this issue is probably no longer a problem.
