[Bug 13966] New: PuTTY: Unable to access right-click context menu (dogfood)
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13966 Summary: PuTTY: Unable to access right-click context menu (dogfood) Product: Wine Version: 1.0-rc4 Platform: Other URL: http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/ OS/Version: other Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: trivial Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org ReportedBy: audiocheese(a)gmail.com When running PuTTY in Windows, you can access a context menu that provides useful features such as the ability to restart or make changes to the current session. This menu is either accessed by right-clicking the taskbar entry for PuTTY OR by right-clicking the window title of the current session. I believe this bug is present in all versions of PuTTY and can be recreated in version 0.60. I have experienced this behavior on Xubuntu 8.04 i386 and Ubuntu 8.04 x86_64 (regardless of the window-manager used). -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

This menu is either accessed by right-clicking the taskbar entry for PuTTY OR by right-clicking the window title of the current session.
Both the taskbar button and the window menu are not controlled by Wine, that's a Window Manager thingy. As a workaround you can run the program in desktop mode. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13966 --- Comment #3 from James Munro <audiocheese(a)gmail.com> 2008-06-17 04:07:28 --- In cases where programs display an icon in the system tray (or notification area), upon right-clicking the correct context menu has been displayed. How does this differ to the desired functionality listed in this bug? Users would expect this functionality to be present because as far as I know, there is no other way to access this menu and it's features. However, thanks for the workaround and I respect your decision to mark the bug as resolved. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

In cases where programs display an icon in the system tray (or notification area), upon right-clicking the correct context menu has been displayed. How does this differ to the desired functionality listed in this bug?
Clicking on a system tray window sends a request to Wine which displays the app's system menu using Windows APIs. Note a difference: Wine displays the application's menu vs. a WM displays its own menu. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

(Or maybe there's even a hook to add one via scripting already.) -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.
