Similar problem is still there with Ubuntu 12.04 : alt-tab shows the opened libreoffice window, but selecting it does not raise it. Clicking on the corresponding launcher icon also does not raise libreoffice window. The only way to get it raised is to use Super+w.
I fixed it, thanks to Stefan, doing : rm /usr/bin/libreoffice ln -s /usr/lib/libreoffice/program/soffice.bin /usr/bin/libreoffice -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to libreoffice in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/896608 Title: Libreoffice Writer window not always visible in ALT-TAB switcher Status in “bamf” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in “libreoffice” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: When LibreOffice Writer is started by double-clicking on a .odt file, the Writer window is not always visible in the ALT-TAB switcher, while the window is clearly visible when pressing Super-W. Steps to reproduce: 1. Open Nautilus. 2. Navigate to a directory that contains a .odt file. 3. Double-click on the .odt file: LibO Writer opens. 4. Press ALT-TAB to switch to another application. Expected behaviour: The LibO window is visible when cycling through ALT-TAB. Actual behaviour: The LibO window is not visible using ALT-TAB but is visible using Super-W.
