Dear GNU Emacs maintainers,
I am using the graphical version of GNU Emacs 29.1, compiled with
the Lucid (Athena) toolkit and downloaded straight from upstream,
without using a downstream distribution package.
When enabling context-menu mode, the menu seems to close right
away when the right mouse button is released. I need to hold the
button down to keep the context menu open.
This did not happen on GNU Emacs 28.2: on that release, the
context menu is toggled, as in all previous versions and
consistently with the majority of existing graphical applications
which use a right-click context menu.
In rare occasions, the context menu does stay open, but the vast
majority of the time it just closes right away the button is held.
The bug is easily reproducible from 'emacs -Q': start Emacs,
enable Context menu mode via 'M-x context-menu-mode' and try
opening the context menu with the right click button.
At first, I thought about a potential new feature, which would
allow the user to choose whether to hold or toggle the context
menu. However, I could not find such functionality mentioned
anywhere in the manual, let alone anything in existing Emacs
variables or functions.
Since the problem is not present in previous releases of GNU Emacs
and since both 29.1 and 28.2 on my system are linked against the
exact same release of the Athena toolkit, I strongly suspect this
to be a bug in Emacs itself.
In GNU Emacs 29.1 (build 2, x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, X toolkit, cairo
version 1.16.0, Xaw3d scroll bars) of 2023-07-30 built on

I am also experiencing this issue with Emacs 30.0.93:

Actually, this depends on the window manager. I observe this problem (everything under xorg) in:
- XMonad (the WM I use)
- bspwm
- fvwm3
- Notion
- windowmaker
- icewm
But I do not see it with:
- i3
- xfce4
- herbstluftwm
- stumpwm
(though on some of the ones where I do not always observe it, it is common to experience the problem in the first clicks).
I should have checked this before the previous email; sorry for that.
Best,
R.
