Although I understand why you made another report about this subject (it is now posted in the correct subforum) it is usually frowned upon to cross/double-post.

I am able to confirm for 2.2.4 as well as 2.3.0 (Lazarus 2.3.0 (rev main-2_3-2689-g666ab2572e) FPC 3.2.2 x86_64-linux-gtk2)

It is a bug that should be corrected. Correcting a bug will take time (and should be reported in the bugtracker).

On a more general note: it is very nice for gitlab to have such a bugtracker but why on earth would I need to login first before being able to search for a specifc term (the old bugtracker did not have that restriction). imho It discourages people from contributing. I can't be arsed to login first in order to check whether or not a bug-report about this subject is present.

I did take a quick look, apparently gtk2 does not like explicit popup. Please do the following:
1. Open ../components/datetimectrls/datetimepicker.pas
2. Search for pmExplicit, you should find it in TDTCalendarForm's constructor
3. Replace

--- Code: Pascal [+][-]window.onload = function(){var x1 = document.getElementById("main_content_section"); if (x1) { var x = document.getElementsByClassName("geshi");for (var i = 0; i < x.length; i++) { x[i].style.maxHeight='none'; x[i].style.height = Math.min(x[i].clientHeight+15,306)+'px'; x[i].style.resize = "vertical";}};} --- //... if Assigned(DTPickersParentForm) then begin DTPickersParentForm.AddHandlerOnVisibleChanged(@VisibleOfParentChanged); DTPickersParentForm.FreeNotification(Self); {PopupParent := DTPickersParentForm; //<- this one PopupMode := pmExplicit;} PopupMode := pmNone; //<- with this one end else PopupMode := pmAuto; //... 4. Rebuild the IDE

This will work with gtk2. For a more generic solution, an ifdef lclgtk2 needed.

zeljko:
It is fixable inside gtk2 ws in that case: Do not set PopupMode to gtk2 window handle if modal form is active and our form.BorderStyle = bsNone.

Thank you for your answers，It works！！
