Hi,
I am using Gnome desktop and sawfish window manager (Gentoo Linux on a
x86 laptop). If I set the focus to follow the cursor on when
entering and exiting a window, I can't get the right mouse button to
work inside an OpenOffice 2.0.1 application. I just found a
workaround, which is that If I set the focus to be affected only when
the mouse pointer enters a window, the right mouse button seems to work
fine. I didn't have this problem with previous versions (1.x) of
OpenOffice.
If I use some other window manager, the right mouse button works fine
in an OpenOffice application. I've tried icewm, fvwm, and mwm,
and they all work fine, but I prefer sawfish with the focus following
the mouse pointer on both entering and exiting a window (I can live
with the workaround, if I have to).
I've tried the same thing on an AMD64 desktop (Gentoo linux, gnome,
sawfish), and the right mouse button works fine in openoffice apps.
Has anyone else seen this behavior with sawfish and OpenOffice 2.0.1 on x86 systems?
