#1448 closed defect (fixed)

Seamless: menu outside normal application window not visible -> fixed in 3.0.6

Reported by: Niels Slot Owned by:
Component: GUI/seamless Version: VirtualBox 1.6.0
Keywords: seamless mode linux guest Cc:
Guest type: Linux Host type: Windows

Description

With a Windows Vista host running the latest Kubuntu (Hardy) in seamless mode the right click menu from the KDE panel is not completely visible. The menu is only drawn on top of the panel. The part of the menu that should normally appear above the desktop (or any other running application) is not visible.

Using the menubar on another application, like Konsole, can also result in the menu not being displayed correctly. It disappears when it should be drawn outside the application window rectangle.

Steps to reproduce:

  • Install Virtualbox 1.6 on a Windows Vista host
  • Install Kubuntu Hardy 8.04 in a virtual machine
  • Install Guest additions
  • Go to seamless mode
  • Right click on the KDE panel (task bar)

Did you try VirtualBox 1.5.6 before and was there a difference? Just want to find out if this is a regression or not.

I couldn't reproduce this with Ubuntu Hardy. Maybe Kubuntu does something different.

(Sorry for this stupid question, forgot that there was no seamless mode in 1.5.6...)
