Title:
window focus when app starts from another
Status in firefox package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
Binary package hint: firefox
When firefox is launched from another app, like for example pidgin,
focus is not completely set to firefox. Even when the window is open,
writing into forms seems to be impossible. Also, the text in the top
window border of firefox is grayed out, while I still can use the
buttons next to it to minimize or maximize.
The only way to get full focus of firefox is by minimizing and then
restoring the window.
I've noticed a similar problem in Gimp. When moving from the drawing
to the window with brushes, I sometimes can not select brushes. The
strange thing is the solution. Just selecting the window with the
drawing again, and then back to the window with the brushes. It is
similar because the focus is not completely set to the selected window
or app.
