Area to the right of notification unclickable

Heya World,

Just a small annoyance, When there is a notification/tooltip active such as "You have Auto capture keyboard option turned on. This will cause the Virtual Machine to" I'm unable to click the area to the right of that message in the guest. I tried disabling auto capture and enabling mouse capture manually. Annoyance still persists.

Issue is obviously solved by closing or 'muting' the notification.


Edit: I have tried to reinstall VirtualBox and Extensions to no avail with reboots in between. Updating to 6.1.2 and will report back.

Code: Select all

Host: Linux Mint 19.3  64-bit
Kernel 5.3.0-26-generic x86_64
MATE 1.22.2

Virtual Box:
Version 6.1.0 r135406 (Qt5.9.5)
Extension Pack (Version: 6.1.0 r135406; VRDE Module: VBoxVRDP)

Guest OS: Win7 64 Bit, WinXP. Win Server 2016 64Bit

They probably don't want you to ignore the message. It does seem strange to me the message wouldn't go all the way across the page, but that might be a graphics glitch.

Probably not something we could fix here. You are running Official Virtualbox, so you can try the Bugtracker. But having that message be "modal" and the area the message should take be unclickable until you clear or hide the error does seem by design. The message should probably be covering the whole width along with the anti-click mask.
