"Open" Toolbar-Button Doesn't Work

[Lonnie Lee Best]

Although I can access the "Open" dialog from the "File" menu (and by pressing ctrl-o), I'm unable to access it by clicking the "Open" button (which is the first button on k4dirstat's tool bar).

Clicking the the Open button does nothing.

What I'm noticing is that if you slowly move your mouse to the "Open" button, it will become embossed and you can then click it and it works.

But, if you mouse to that button too quickly, it doesn't become embossed, and in this case, clicking it does nothing (even though your mouse is sitting directly on top of the button.

I reproduce it but have no clues to fix it for now. I just note that it doesn't only affect the open button but any button set as the first button of the toolbar (right click, configure toolbars).

What library package does the button-control come from? Perhaps this bug is effecting more than just k4dirstat (it could be effecting any application that implements that type of tool-bar/button-control from the same package k4dirstat uses).

If it isn't k4dirstat specific, then the control library developers should be notified of this bug.

This is KDE (precisely http://api.kde.org/4.8-api/kdelibs-apidocs/kdeui/html/classKXmlGuiWindow.html) but I don't know any other KDE application having this bug.

These 2 commits fix the bug:
http://bitbucket.org/jeromerobert/k4dirstat/changeset/f5be53af1103/raw/

As it's not a critical bug, the Debian package won't be update until the release of Wheezy.
