------- Additional comments from [email protected] Wed Feb 11 15:46:02 +0000 2009 ------- Yes, that would be the case, only in these cases the desktop won't really change - granted that's unnecessary prtotocol traffic. We could of course take that line out, but then people would end up with OOo opening a dialog on another desktop again and wondering why nothing happens. cd: originally we did this switching because people would open the file or template dialog via the system's desktop menu and somehow OOo's framework could not survive that those dialogs have no parent. Is that still the case ? Because all my ranting about window managers aside (of which there are too many and you cannot rely on a single thing with them aside from them causing all kinds of pain), it is well within a window manager's domain to decide whether a newly mapped window should get the focus or not - including switching the desktop. The best solution would indeed be if those dialogs needn't have a parent, which would make them appear on the current desktop instead of the other that by chance contains one of OOo's frames. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
