Clicking on bubbles in KDE telepathy notifications doesn't work

[Scott Kitterman]

When I'm using KDE telepathy for AIM, I get a notification with an action bubble if I have a message and the window is hidden. If I click on it, nothing happens. The same action works just fine in Kopete, so this is a regression from what we had with it.

Using plasms-netbook, KDE 4.8.0.

Can you test something for me?

Have someone send you a message and click the "Respond" button immediately. Does it work?

Then have someone send you another message, move your mouse on the notification, wait a few seconds (at least 5) and then click the button. Does that work?

Thanks!

[Scott Kitterman (kitterman)]

Nope. Neither works. Shadeslayer and I are testing now.

I've verified that notification actions work in both Quassel and Kopete on this
system.

[Scott Kitterman (kitterman)]

I changed focus stealing prevention to none and it works, so that's a clue. Since this is a response to a user action, I think it should still work when it's set to low (Quassel and Kopete do).

[Scott Kitterman (kitterman)]

I'm curious if the issues discussed in this thread might be relevant:

http://mail.kde.org/pipermail/kde-telepathy/2011-June/002159.html

Were they addressed?

[Martin Klapetek (martin-klapetek)]

Yes, we actually went for the 'naughty' solution. But I see that is not working right now, so it must got broken.

[Scott Kitterman (kitterman)]

It was working for shadeslayer, but not for me, so it's sort of broken. Any
information I can provide to help troubleshoot?

[Launchpad Janitor (janitor)]

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

As Martin Klapetek (martin-klapetek) asked, when message first came, and clicked view button, chat window appear, but if I wait for about two seconds, nothing happens when I click view in notification.. What doest this mean Martin Klapetek (martin-klapetek) ? How can I correct this?

[Martin Klapetek (martin-klapetek)]

Which version are you using?

[Reuben Firmin (reubenf)]

Same here. There are two notification icons in which "new message" notifications sometimes appear:

1) The envelope, which gets a star. When I click on this the message pops up accurately in a telepathy window.

2) The (i) icon, which when I click on it pops up a notification box with the no-op respond button.

Version: 0.5.1. Very annoying.

[Martin Klapetek (martin-klapetek)]

Since KDE 4.10 has new QML based notifications and this bug was against the old notifications, please retest against the QML notifications. If the problem still persist, please file a bug at our bugzilla at bugs.kde.org - product telepathy - as that bugzilla is being watched by all our developers.

Thanks.
