Unable to click on top left screen

[Yoann M]

Random after some time, the top left of the screen can't be clicked (not even the mouse move event are dispatched to the window)

Using the Wayland (Alt + F2) "lg" show that a transparent box (385 width x 56 height) is over, unable to close it

[0x6204284ebac0 StLabel.message-title:insensitive first-child("Some window title")]

It seems to be a notification window or something, and it's blocked here.

The only way to fix it is to close the session, killing everything

Please try using 'xwininfo' to find out what it is. Also in case you mean "top right" or are using an RTL language, see bug 2012388.

I just got the bug again (you can see it's not very often)

I just sent the debug.

xwininfo is not working on that zone top left zone. I can't click on it. I can only click outside this box.

I tried again with "lg", and the text show that it's some notification. It's some "old" Skype notification.

Stopping Skype do not solve the issue, so I think it's linked with the notification system.

(Note : My notifications are showned on bottom right of my screen, not top left)

First screenshot that show that seems to be a notification

Sounds like bug 2059819 so we can wait and see if that fixes this too.
