I use VidyoDesktop regularly for conferences, but it doesn't work with
qtile.
The problem is, that certain dialog boxes will close immediately if I
attempt to open them.
This makes me unable to operate the program.
The event goes like this
1. I click on a list item to open the dialogue (eg connect)
2. Qtile attempts to render the dialogue
3. The dialogue gets focus, main application losses focus and it closes the
dialogue immediately.
4. Dialogue is closes immediately
I have attached a screenshot of how the dialogue behaves in Gnome 3.
If I run debug in qsh, I can get the following from the log when I click:

The main observation is that qtile receives a kill instruction 150 ms after
the button click is received.
I think that some applications have dialoges which are designed to close if
the user click anywhere but in the dialoge. Qtile changes focus in a
different way and this makes the applications think that the user changed
focus and the dialogue should close. I have similar issues with dialog
boxes in matlab.
Does anyone have suggestions to how I can approach this problem? I cannot
do a xprop to trace the class of the dialogue box (not even in Gnome) as it
closes immediately if activity occurs outside the dialogue box.
