Add me to this list. X11 window are definitely treated differently by the system. I have noticed, however, that even using command-tab to switch between "normal" apps is not a reliable or as fast as before. I wonder if this is because I started with Jaguar, upgraded to Panther and then upgraded to Tiger, but I cannot be certain.

Hmm,
With mine, double clicking the dock icon doesn't work per se. I have to click once, wait a slightly, then click the second time. That brings the X11 windows forward for me. I do have my double click speed set to be really really short (time interval). If you have double-clicking set up to take longer, then the interval probably matches. Not that it explains the odd behavior. I've cross posted to fink users (& forgot to initially reply to the X11 list). Does anyone have the problem NOT using fink? That's where I get all my X11 apps & we could rule that out or not pretty quick. For the rest of fink users-- do any of you with the latest build NOT have the problem that's being described? Maybe a setup tweak?
Thanks,
Brandon

I've also experienced this issue where clicking on the X11 dock icon doesn't make windows come forwards. Double-clicking on the icon seems to work, though I have no idea why.

Hey fellows,

Same problem for me, but I had not noticed it because when I'm running X11 I tend to have so many windows open that I use Expose to switch around between OS X & any X11 apps. No problems switching with Expose, but CMD-Tab only pulls the X11 menu bar forward, but none of the X11 app windows (xclock, abiword, gnumeric, gimp2, or xterm). I'm running OS 10.4.2 on fink-0.24.7-21 with X11 1.1 -XFree86 4.4.0 & XCode 2.1.

Later,
Brandon


BTW-- what is "command-back-quote"? Some 3 key combination? CMD-' & CMD-shift-' & CMD-BckArrw-' & CMD-` & CMD-Shift-~ don't do the reverse of CMD-Tab on my machine so I don't understand Peter's workaround.


I don't use X much on my Mac and by coincidence I just noticed this today. I also noticed that if when I'm switching to X using command-tab and command-back-quote, that if I go two icons past X with command-tab, and then back up to X with command-back-quote, the X session comes to the front. That's the screwy thing I've been doing. I hope someone has a better solution.

Peter

Hi all --

I'm new to the list, so this may have been covered. I was unable to
find the list archives to search.


I finished installing Tiger this last weekend on a Powerbook G4, then
upgraded to 10.4.2.  I'm running X11 with the following "About"
string: X11 (null) - XFree86 4.3.0.  Everything worked fine on
Panther 10.3.x.

However, after the upgrade, when I switch to X11, the windows do not come forward. Are other users experiencing this? Is there a fix or a workaround to this? It makes it almost impossible to use X with any other applications open. I have to hide all other apps to get to my
X11 windows if I switch back from another application.


Thanks,
Jon
