[07:44] <DarkTrick> Hello
[07:51] <ochosi> hi
[07:58] <DarkTrick> When menus are opened a click outside the menu would make the menu disappear. But the click will not be valid on the clicked position (e.g. sets a cursor there)
[07:59] <DarkTrick> Is this an xubuntu-specific behavior? Or is it the underlying gui framework (like gtk)?
[08:19] <guiverc> DarkTrick, I don't know, but it's not Xubuntu specific as far as I know, Lubuntu (with either LXDE & LXQt) can have openbox take the click, thus xfwm maybe on Xubuntu -- but this is pure uneducated guess
[08:28] <DarkTrick> guiverc, thanks for the guess!
[08:30] <ali1234> pretty sure it is gtk
[08:31] <ali1234> opening a menu grabs the mouse pointer for exclusive input
[08:31] <ali1234> this is also why the screensaver can't run if you open a menu and walk away from the computer
[08:31] <ali1234> (and note that by "gtk" i mean "the gdk X11 backend")
[08:33] <DarkTrick> is there any way to alter the behavior of that?
[08:34] <DarkTrick> ali1234, ↑
[08:34] <ali1234> not really
[08:35] <DarkTrick> So the only chance is to implement a menu myself?
[08:41] <ali1234> well, you could patch gdk, but that would be really difficult and not portable
[08:41] <DarkTrick> "portable" means "to windows / mac" or "between distributions"? 
[08:41] <DarkTrick> or do you mean a local patch for my own system?
[08:42] <ali1234> i mean local patch for your system
[08:42] <ali1234> anyone who wanted to run your program would also have to patch gdk
[08:42] <ali1234> so clearly that is a terrible idea
[08:43] <ali1234> you could try asking in #gtk on irc.gnome.org
[08:49] <DarkTrick> idd, terrible idea
[08:52] <DarkTrick> I tried gtk, but they are rather quiet in there
