Category: Appearance/Rendering Group: CVS Status: Open Resolution: Accepted Priority: 3 Submitted By: Jamin W. Collins (jamincollins) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: VNC Fullscreen can't get keyboard focus Initial Comment: This problem isn't new to the CVS version, I just remembered that it happens. If you open a normal windowed VNC connection, and then try to switch to fullscreen view, the VNC view will disappear. The application is still running. However the display window is nowhere to be found. To replicate: - Open windowed VNC connection to any system - Press F8 for popup menu - Select "Full screen" from the menu You VNC display should now be gone. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Jamin W. Collins (jamincollins) Date: 2002-10-01 07:05 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=88136 Just tried it against the Openbox package in Debian Unstable. Everything works (switching from and to Full Screen, starting in Full Screen, and keyboard entry at all times). Perhaps, the Openbox code can shed a different light on this? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Jamin W. Collins (jamincollins) Date: 2002-08-08 16:04 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=88136 Just grabbed latest CVS, and tested. Now for some reason, I can see the scroll bar(s) of the VNC window even though it's full screen. I'm not sure if this is a BB problem. The keyboard focus problem is still there though. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Sean 'Shaleh' Perry (shaleh) Date: 2002-08-08 15:53 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=37132 would you mind checking this against current cvs again? Perhaps some of the changes for the stl games helped out here as well. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Sean 'Shaleh' Perry (shaleh) Date: 2002-07-11 10:12 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=37132 pretty much. The vnc source is really clean and well documented. You should be able to find the maximize function in less than 10 minutes. Read the code and comment. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Jamin W. Collins (jamincollins) Date: 2002-07-11 09:46 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=88136 So, are we thinking that this possibly more of a VNC problem than a BB problem? I'm beginning to think it might be. After all there are quite a few applications out there that are able to go Full Screen in a way that plays happily with a number of Window Managers. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Sean 'Shaleh' Perry (shaleh) Date: 2002-07-10 21:34 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=37132 there is a comment in the vnc source which says "this may not work everywhere". Brad has tracked the issue but was not able to find a safe and sane solution. He could fix this but likely break other things. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Jamin W. Collins (jamincollins) Date: 2002-07-10 20:50 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=88136 Reopening to provide an update regarding the focusing issue. I've tried a few other window managers and most seem to exhibit the same problems. However, TWM works perfectly. You can change from Fullscreen to windowed and vice versa with no problems. Keystrokes are seen and registered in both modes and even after switching. Maybe this might help locating a solution for Blackbox? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Sean 'Shaleh' Perry (shaleh) Date: 2002-06-21 11:36 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=37132 I am closing this bug because the problem it reports is solved. We do still have a focus problem however. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Sean 'Shaleh' Perry (shaleh) Date: 2002-05-24 17:35 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=37132 The problem here is we unmap the window while releasing it. Blackbox misses the reparent event telling it to map the window. Modifying BlackboxWindow::restore() to set remap = true if a reparentNotify is in the pipe solves part of this bug. Once the full screen vnc is running it is not able to get focus. This means switching to console and killing vnc. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=428680&aid=560271&group_id=40696 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] List archives: http://asgardsrealm.net/lurker/splash/index.html Trouble?
