Dear all, I have tried googling this question, but all I get is false hits solving slightly different problems. Can someone help, please?
How can I prevent newly created windows from stealing focus? The best tip I found in my search was to search for `manage' in rc.lua and comment out a `client.focus = c' line. That, however, just meant that windows would not get focus just by moving the mouse, and new windows still stole focus. Basically, I think the only event which should cause a focus change is the mouse pointer entering the window. The problem I have, to be specific, is a matlab process running on one screen, while I try to work on another. Since matlab spawns new figure windows all the time, I repeatedly find my main window having lost focus half a sentence ago. I am assuming that this is a window manager problem, but I might of course be wrong. Any way to fix it in awesome? TIA -- :-- Hans Georg -- To unsubscribe, send mail to [email protected].
