- marcosdumay 13y agoHidden modals is the kind of fun people miss in KDE. But when I use Windows, I'm not bold enough to just click enter on whatever I'm not seeing to get the program back. I'll kill it on control panel before that.
- pbhjpbhj 13y agoI use KDE and there are two situations where I get "hidden" modals. One is when FF decides I need to enter my master password more than once - eg a restart that opens more than one page that requires authorisation. The other is when an app crashes, if there are multiple crashes then the crash reporter hides subsequent error dialogs. What's most frustrating is when the ordering gets broken, probably due to my interactions, and one can't click the topmost dialog as it's blocked by a later dialog. Generally the dialogs aren't hidden because you see them on the application bar but with grouping on (the default) they get hidden within the group. It might be worse with things like sloppy focus or focus stealing prevention set differently. If I can't see a dialog on MS Windows I'll try Alt-Tab then hit escape, then Alt-F4, then try and bring up task manager ...
