RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description of problem:

When the focus mode for gnome is set to mouse or sloppy, a window looses focus
when the mouse goes out of the window surface. This also happens when the 
mouse is on a pull-down menu that is partially outside of the window. The
entries not inside the window are not selectable.

This is very annoying for us since a critical web application with small
pop-up windows show this effect. The work-around is to control the selection
with the cursor keys.

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

RHEL7, up-to-date.

How reproducible:

Always, easily with firefox.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start the gnome desktop
2. Set focus mode to mouse using the tweak tool
3. Open firefox and go to facebook.com registration page
4. Resize the window such that the month pull-down menus will extend beyond the bottom of the window
5. Try to select December

Actual results:

Cannot select because the window looses focus.

Expected results:

Window should keep the focus when the mouse stays in the pull-down menu even
if it leaves the window.

Additional info:

Testing of https://brewweb.devel.redhat.com/taskinfo?taskID=8241596 would be appreciated before I go on an ack-hunt.
