[Wayland] Contex menus don't work anymore in statusnotifier widget about qtile-extras HOT 18 CLOSED

Yes, I am using the latest version. When I get off work I'll update qtile with the latest changes

from qtile-extras.

Interesting.

I don't use Wayland so hadn't seen this but I suspect it's due to the changes that were made recently to how we handle certain window types.

I suspect any fix would be at the qtile level, rather than in this repo.

from qtile-extras.

Hmm. Having tested it. Context menu works for me Tested with both vlc and remmina.

from qtile-extras.

Okay. I tried with Steam and OBS, later when I get home from work I'll try with your 2 applications. Maybe it stopped working with apps that use Xwayland

from qtile-extras.

vlc and remmina doesn't even show the icons in my StatusNotifier config, neither Wayland nor X11.
Now in obs it does show the context menu, but in steam it doesn't and when I click on the icon it shows me this message

And this is a general log, from my Qtile

Thanks for posting more info.

I tried installing obs and steam and the menus work on both of them for me.

Your first error is interesting as it suggests that there are no menu items. I don't think the code currently handles that possibility so I can try adding something there. However, as above, the menus work for me so I'm not sure this is the problem.

from qtile-extras.

I've pushed a change that will stop the widget trying to create a menu when there are no menu items. You could see if that makes any difference here.

Update the repository and do not notice any changes. Also as you say, maybe it's more because of the qtile code, since I'm always updating it and it worked before.
Also do not worry about this issue, but it would be nice if they could incorporate part of the code of your StatusNotifier widget to the official Qtile since yours has context menus, in order to improve it

from qtile-extras.

It will never be merged into the main repo as there's too much extra code required.

If the menus worked before, can you try doing a git bisect? Again, I'm dubious if that would work because I can't replicate this

from qtile-extras.

I update all pip packages and steam context menu and obs started working. But I have to restart qtile with mod+ctrl+r for it to work. I guess it's some problem with the qtile bar, because sometimes when I move the mouse up in some widget the pointer disappears. Also for the mouse pointer to appear I have to have a window open, but that is already a problem of qtile with wayland. So I'm going to close this issue. Thank you very much

I install nm-tray (QT app) and give me this error in the log file

An this in the app (i launched by kitty)

QSystemTrayIcon::setVisible: No Icon set QDBusTrayIcon encountered a D-Bus error: QDBusError("org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply", "Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken.")

If I use any GTK widget it doesn't give me any error but the widget doesn't appear either

I re-open the issue. If you want, feel free to close it. Thank you

from qtile-extras.

Just to check: are you running latest qtile-extras now?

The second error message is hopefully fixed by qtile/qtile#3434

I've installed nm-tray from the AUR but can't get it to run. Get an error No Icon Set. This happens because they don't provide any fallback icons. There's an unmerged PR that fixes this so I may have to build it manually unless you know how to fix that (the fix in palinek/nm-tray#40 didn't work for me).

from qtile-extras.

OK. Built from git with their PR to add fallback icons.

Menus work for me on both.

from qtile-extras.

I have applied the changes in Qtile, in my case nm-tray still does not show the icon in the system tray, but icons that were not shown before like VLC now do.
The context menus for which I made this issue now work, but first I have to restart qtile with mod4+Ctrl+R for them to do so.

from qtile-extras.

You really shouldn't have to restart. Do any of your widgets respond to mouse clicks before restarting?

from qtile-extras.

No, the mouse does not respond to clicks before restart

from qtile-extras.

Can you check if the same thing happens if you remove the status notifier widget. If it does, post an issue on the qtile repo instead and we'll take a look.
