i am having this bug in 2015 on ubuntu 14. i switch workspace to a space with several windows open, but focus stays in the windows in the old workspace.
this is a really big bug that could cause security issues, for example if you type your password into a public forum instead of into a firefox password field. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to compiz in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/986699 Title: Window focus stays between workspaces Status in compiz package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: If you've got maximized window focused on one workspace, and move to another workspace, the focus stays on the window on the previous workspace. I'm not entirely sure under which exact conditions it happens, as I am not always able to replicate it. It seems to affect windows that are maximized or in full-screen mode (switching from workspace with full-screen VLC, and pressing space pauses/unpauses the video). Also, terminal in full-screen mode seems to be prone to this bug. Sorry if I can't be more helpful, maybe someone else affected can figure out how to replicate it.
