Yep, you're right, it happens for all Qt apps. Although just focusing the
app isn't enough, I actually have to interact with it (open a menu etc),
then change workspace, then if the mouse is not over a window on the new
workspace (I'm using sloppy focus) bbkeys no longer reponds.
It's unlikely to be anything related to the config program, more like
Qt's interaction with Blackbox (Qt isn't correctly releasing focus,
blackbox isn't fully compatible with Qt widget's? These are wild stabs
in the dark as I'm not familar at all with how wm's interact with apps).
Maybe one of the developer's could shed some light?
Cheers,
Gian
