Create a launcher with "Use startup notification" checked. 2. Clic on it. What happened: The window opened is not focused What I expected to happen: This new window would be focused automatically ------ I have tried to change every settings in xfwm4-tweaks-settings without success, windows never take focus when "use startup notification" is checked.

Launchers on the panel, with "Use startup notification" works great. Steps to reproduce (corrected): 1. Create a launcher on your desktop with "Use startup notification" checked. 2. Click on it.

What are your focus settings ? Here's it's "click to focus" + "automatically focus new windows" checked + "prevent focus stealing" unchecked.

So most likely, what happens is that additional activity occurs with the desktop window after the timestamp is recorded for startup notification... So when the window manager compares last activity timestamp against the startup notification provided timestamp, it finds the latter to be older and therefore won't focus the window.

In order to not distract the user if he was doing something else during that time. But my windows don't get focused even with light applications that open immediately (gcalctool...). Same results by pressing Enter to run the launcher, without touching my mouse. ------ I've just noticed I don't get the cursor animation too, that should play during the opening of a launcher with "Use startup notification" checked. The same launcher with "use startup application" checked: Launcher on panel: Focus works. Hourglass* FAILS Launcher on thunar: Focus works. Hourglass* FAILS Launcher on the desktop: Focus FAILS. Hourglass* FAILS *Hourglass: By that, I mean the cursor-idle-animation. xfdesktop : version 4.8.3-2ubuntu7 libstartup-notification0 : version 0.12-1ubuntu1 Reply at: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xfdesktop4/+bug/1396716/comments/5 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ On 2014-12-17T13:38:49+00:00 Landry-o wrote: *** Bug 11347 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Reply at: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xfdesktop4/+bug/1396716/comments/14 ** Changed in: xfdesktop Status: Unknown => Confirmed ** Changed in: xfdesktop Importance: Unknown => Medium -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1396716 Title: New Windows Launched From Desktop Don't Receive Focus To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/xfdesktop/+bug/1396716/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
