Classification: UNCLASSIFIED
Caveats: NONE

I have verified that the issue is specific to KDE ... If I run the GNOME
window manager on the same workstation,  the pop-up behaves correctly.
Curiously, the behavior only impacts the color map editor.   Other pop-up
windows (file select, python window, connection window, etc) all behave
correctly using KDE.

I suspect that has something to do with KDE/X Windowing system. I wonder if
anyone else on this list has seen this problem.

	If I run with the "-dr" flag, the color map window shows up inside
of the
	main GUI (on the right hand side of the GL window) and works
correctly.   If
	I drag the color map editor tool outside of the main gui,  I get the
same
	behavior of the window disappearing if the cursor is outside of the
main GL
	window.

	Rick,
	
	Can you try running ParaView with "-dr" command line option and see
if the
	problem persists?

	        I'm seeing some weirdness with the color map editor.   If I
choose
	the color
	        map editor option, a separate window pops up as expected.
But when
	I move
	        my cursor from the main window over to the color map pop-up
window,
	the
	        color map window disappears.  If I move my cursor back to
the main
	window,
	        the color map pop-up reappears.   If I drag the main GUI
window over
	to so
	        that the edges of the main GUI window and the color map
popup window
	are
	        touching, then the color map editor window does not
disappear.
	
	        I'm using the Linux_64 prebuilt binary on a RHEL5 Linux
system
	running KDE
	        3.5.4.

	        Subject: [Paraview] ANN: ParaView 4.1.0 is available for
download
	
	        Folks,
	
	
	
	
	        ParaView 4.1.0 is now available for download
	        (http://paraview.org/paraview/resources/software.php
	        <http://paraview.org/paraview/resources/software.php> ).
With over
	170
	        issues resolved, this release includes several bug fixes and
feature
	        enhancements. For a detailed list of issues resolved, refer
to the
	change
	        log (http://paraview.org/Bug/changelog_page.php
	        <http://paraview.org/Bug/changelog_page.php> ).  Some of the
notable
	        enhancements in this release are as follows:
	
	
	        Redesigned Color Map Editor panel
	
	        This release introduces a completely designed panel for
editing
	color and
	        opacity transfer functions for scalar coloring. The panel,
which is
	now a
	        dockable widget, instead of a popup dialog, makes it easier
to edit
	transfer
	        functions as well as edit labels and annotations on the
color legend
	or
	        scalar bar. This also makes it easier to access some of the
	functionality
	        introduced in the previous version of ParaView, such as
categorical
	colors.
	        It is now easier to edit transfer functions when using log
scaling
	as the
	        transfer function editor view now switches to log space.

	        Enhancements to Find Data dialog
	
	        Find Data dialog, introduced several versions ago, has
quickly
	become of the
	        main mechanisms for creating new selections. However, until
now, if
	the user
	        created selection using some other mechanism, such as
selecting
	cells in the
	        3D view, the Find Data dialog could not be used to inspect
that
	selection.
	        One had to use what was called the Selection Inspector. That
has now
	been
	        changed. Find Data dialog has been updated to always show
the active
	        selection, no matter how it was created.
	
	
	        Selection Inspector panel has been removed. Selection
Inspector was
	        primarily used to control how selections are labelled, their
font
	        properties, etc. One can affect these directly from the Find
Data
	dialog or
	        the new Selection Display Inspector which is dockable panel
	specially
	        designed for picking selection labels, label properties, or
showing
	the
	        selection frustum for frustum based selections.

	        Enhancements for interactions with Plots
	
	        Inspired by plots in matplotlib, individual axes in line and
bar
	charts can
	        now be zoomed by right-clicking and dragging along the x- or
y-
	axis. Of
	        course, one can still drag diagonally to scale both axes as
before.
	Also the
	        the user interactions for making new selections in line
chart view
	have been
	        cleaned up to be more consistent with the render view.
	
	
	        Support for Python-based views
	
	        This release adds mechanisms to enable Python developers to
	integrate views
	        that use libraries such as matplotlib for rendering. This
will make
	it
	        possible to take ParaView's charting capabilities even
further. More
	details
	        on how to create such views can be found on Kitware blog
	        (http://www.kitware.com/blog/home/post/588
	        <http://www.kitware.com/blog/home/post/588> ).
	
	
	        ParaView Catalyst: Zero-Copy infrastructure for transferring
data
	
	        A set of experimental interfaces have been added for reusing
	simulation
	        memory in portions of a Catalyst pipeline. A
vtkMappedDataArray
	subclass may
	        be used for attribute/coordinate arrays, and
	vtkMappedUnstructuredGrid is
	        used for dataset topologies. More information can be found

	        ParaView Catalyst: Editions
	
	        Several new editions of ParaView Catalyst are now available
for
	download and
	        are routinely built and tested. These editions are:
	
	
	        Base
	
	        minimal set of dependencies needed for Catalyst
	
	        Base-Python
	
	        Base with Python support
	
	        Essentials
	
	        Base + dependencies needed for Calculator, Contour, Clip,
Cut and
	Glyph
	        filters.
	
	        Essentials-Python
	
	        Essentials with Python support
	
	        Extras
	
	        Essentials + dependencies needed for ExtractHistogram,
WarpScalar,
	        WarpVector, IntegrateAttributes, Extract Surface filters.
	
	        Extras-Python
	
	        Extras with Python support
	
	
	        SurfaceLIC and support for Parallel Rendering
	
	        One of the notable community contributions for this release
includes
	        extensions to the ParaView Line Integral Convolution
contributed by
	Lawrence
	        Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL). Details can be found on
the
	Wiki
	        (http://paraview.org/Wiki/ParaView/Line_Integral_Convolution
	
<http://paraview.org/Wiki/ParaView/Line_Integral_Convolution> ). The
	        implementation has been designed to work with composite data
in
	parallel and
	        includes a number of customizations that facilitate
interactive data
	        exploration.

	        Updates to ParaViewWeb
	
	        ParaViewWeb was integrated into ParaView binaries in the
previous
	release.
	        This release includes several fixes and enhancements to
simplify use
	and
	        deployment as well as updates to the WebGL rendering
support. This
	        implementation supports modern browsers with WebSocket
capabilities
	        including Safari 6+, Chrome 14+, Firefox 11+ and IE 10+.
	
	
	        As always, we look forward to your feedback
