[Bug 268963] Re: focus does not return to desktop after opening and closing a file on it if anther window is open

Yep, I guess this is the behaviour that I was reporting the initial bug against. If I open a file on the desktop and then close that file, I (personally) would expect focus to be given back to the desktop. The problem is that focus is given to the highest (z-order) window, rather than the most

Metacity always selects an active window when another window is closed. The problem with the desktop effect enabled is another issue - bug #457139 - and in that, the behavior when closing a window is somewhat different. See that bug report for details. -- focus does not return to desktop after

Yes, I am still experiencing this bug with Jaunty with Metacity and Desktop Effects disabled. My guess is that this bug should be upstreamed but I don't know what the relevant upstream project would be... -- focus does not return to desktop after opening and closing a file on it if anther

Yes, it's still a Bug in 9.04, but it has NOTHING to do with metacity! I use Compiz witz Emerald. Exact the same problem, but only since ubuntu 9.04! Andreas -- focus does not return to desktop after opening and closing a file on it if anther window is open

I'm seeing this since Intrepid with Metacity. Desktop effects are disabled. I have a dual-monitor ATi setup. I am using the Clearlooks theme. I will be working in an app and select a file on my desktop to rename or delete using keyboard shortcuts and the operation is performed in the app

I'm seeing this behavior but only after upgrading to Ibex (or potentially messing with my compiz settings?). I am using compiz. Basically, the desktop isn't allowed to have focus or something. That is, let's say I'm in pidgin watching a chat room. That's the active window. I then click on an

I switched to metacity and it doesn't not show this behavior (ergo, my issue must have been with compiz, so not really applicable to this bug). However, I switched back to compiz after doing that and everything worked fine, even across reboots. So just something weird in compiz that, somehow,

I disagree that it's more likely what the user wants. The focus is returned to the top most window (z order) rather than the window that last had focus (desktop). Take this use case: 1. user opens a file on the desktop to determine it's contents 2. they verify that the file is no longer needed
