No, this is our problem and I did run into it many times now. The problem is that when you press Ctrl+click and the popup shows and you do something else that makes Geany lose focus, the Ctrl release isn't registered by Geany and the popup gets stuck forever.

We should also check whether the Geany window lost focus and hide the popup in this case.

Ctrl+Tab??

Yes.

@b4n Is there anything else other than the `focus-out-event` signal we could use? When I tested it in #3907, the signal was fired when the window lost focus for some "real" window such as a dialog but not for the case reported by OP here with the menus. To be precise, I connected `main_widgets.window` because we cannot connect every possible widget in the main window and then `focus-out-event` is fired only when focus truly leaves the main window for some other window.

But maybe even if we aren't able to fix the menu item click problem, `focus-out-event` fixes most of the other situations so it might still be worth adding (don't look much at #3907, it's not completely right).

Also happens if you e.g. switch windows or workspace while holding Ctrl -- and this is entirely out of our control.

I'd expect `focus-out-event` would be fired in this case, right?
