Shortcut menu on the dock does not function at all #475
Description
What Happened?
When you open a shortcut menu (or context menu) that allows you to select options like "Keep in Dock" or "Open New Window," it does not function at all. The menu is available, but it does not open any new window, and the "Keep in Dock" feature does not work for any app. This is my third installation, and every time I do a fresh installation, some new issue shows up.
I had no issue with my 4th installation of elementary-8.0.1-20250314.iso (downloaded from distro watch) but after the updates/upgrades issue is still there.
P.S: On my 4th installation system update did not work. I have manually updated/upgraded.
Steps to Reproduce
- Open any app
- When the app opens
- Right click the app on the dock and select "keep in dock"
- If the app have more options, like "open new window" click on that but none of them works.
Expected Behavior
When the check box checked for "keep in dock", app should stay in the dock forever.
