I'm definitely seeing this as new behavior after the 15.10 upgrade. In 15.04 this was fine for me on the destkop, now things that generate notifications steal my focus so that things like F1 no longer get sent to the window manager for things like show/hide of Tilda.

Matching subscriptions: dx-packages https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/694224 Title: Synchronous notifications briefly steal focus Status in notify-osd package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: It appears synchronous notifications (at least those for volume and brightness) briefly steal focus when they appear. This is quite problematic for games and some other applications that pause as soon as they lose focus. The focus stealing does not happen with normal, asynchronous notifications. Here's a quick Python program to reproduce this: #!/usr/bin/python import gtk import time def cb (wid, ev): evtime = time.strftime ("%H:%M:%S", time.localtime()) print ("%s: Lost focus!" % evtime) win = gtk.Window() win.connect ("focus-out-event", cb) win.show_all() gtk.main() You could also just start playing Quadrapassel, then adjust your volume :) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/notify-osd/+bug/694224/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~dx-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~dx-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
