Sometimes, the mouse_release_event ending a pan/zoom can be lost, if it occurs while the canvas does not have focus (a typical case is when a context menu is implemented on top of the canvas, see example below); this can result in rather confusing behavior as the pan/zoom continues which no mouse button is pressed. To fix this, always check that the correct button is still pressed in the motion_notify_event handlers.

To test, use e.g.

from matplotlib import pyplot as plt
from matplotlib.backends.qt_compat import QtWidgets

def on_button_press(event):
    if event.button != 3:  # Right-click.
        return
    menu = QtWidgets.QMenu()
    menu.addAction("Some menu action", lambda: None)
    menu.exec(event.guiEvent.globalPosition().toPoint())

fig = plt.figure()
fig.canvas.mpl_connect("button_press_event", on_button_press)
fig.add_subplot()
plt.show()

enter pan/zoom mode, right-click to open the context menu, exit the menu, and continue moving the mouse.

Followup to #28453 (and the original motivation for it).

Shouldn't this be an exact match? I believe the action should terminate as soon as any button is pressed or released.

Sure, I don't really mind either way.

Actually, the test failures appear relevant.

Indeed, should be fixed now (synthetic events in tests needed some adjustment).
