Description Stuart D Gathman 2016-06-13 12:08:52 UTC

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1343250 +++

Description of problem:
While in full screen, mouse events that are over the (invisible) cinnamon panel do not reach x2goclient, and are processed by the cinnamon panel instead.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
x2goclient-4.0.5.1-1.fc24.x86_64
cinnamon-3.0.5-2.fc24.x86_64

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. put x2goclient in full screen mode
2. click on where a cinnamon panel launcher would be if you could see it
3.

Actual results:
Cinnamon sees the mouse click instead of x2goclient

Expected results:
Normal full screen operation

Additional info:
I have the cinnamon panel at the top of the screen, and the remote desktop is F23 MATE with panel at the top.  This worked fine in F22. 

Other application windows underneath x2goclient don't seem to capture the mouse events.

I wasn't sure whether cinnamon or x2goclient is at fault.  I need to find another full screen app to try.

Comment 1 Stuart D Gathman 2016-06-13 16:42:36 UTC

Parole Media Player doesn't have the bug in F24.  However, Cinnamon went from 2.6 to 3.0 between F22 and F24, while x2goclient stayed at the same version.  So it is not obvious which package is the problem.

Comment 2 Stuart D Gathman 2016-06-13 18:12:16 UTC

Furthermore, if I minimize x2goclient, cinnamon is unable to restore to full screen.  

I tested using F24 MATE as local DE, and x2goclient works.  So that seems to point to cinnamon as the culprit.

Eog also doesn't go fullscreen correctly, and that is reported here:

Comment 5 Stuart D Gathman 2016-06-27 20:23:21 UTC

Workaround: In the Cinnamon General Preferences,  turn on "disable compositing for full screen windows".  This makes full screen apps work (but you don't get composited popups from the host appearing "over" them). This is an entirely satisfactory workaround - and the priority should be low.
