[kwin] [Bug 172615] Gimp 2.6 utility windows do not stay on top of the main window
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=172615 --- Comment #32 from Andreas Kilgus --- (In reply to David Edmundson from comment #30) > If you can explain where we explicitly break the spec I will reopen this. I am no specs expert but I can tell if something works as expected. Below you find the test results of several window managers. Work as expected (plugin gui opened in ardour/mixbus stays in foreground): compiz openbox metacity xfwm4 Work in an alternative, usable way (plugin gui does not stay in foreground in every case of user interaction with main window but the plugin gui is always just an Alt+Tab away because it is part of the windows list): icewm fvwm fvwm2 Main window of ardour/mixbus must be minimized or synth gui must be closed and reopened for the synth gui to be accessible, no return via Alt+Tab: kwin > Thomas above explains that we don't. So if the conclusion is already set there's no need to discuss. My private conclusion: I will have to switch to another window manager that you may claim not being standard-compliant - though I wonder at so many window managers seeming to belong to this group if your claim is true, see above - but that keeps windows accessible at least. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=172615 Andreas Kilgus changed: What|Removed |Added Status|RESOLVED|REOPENED CC||k...@fuenfsieben.de Resolution|INTENTIONAL |--- --- Comment #29 from Andreas Kilgus --- According to https://manual.ardour.org/ardour-configuration/system-specific-setup/kde-plasma-5/ - if their claim about the behaviour of other window managers is valid - gimp is not the only application that reads the ICCCM standard a different way compared to kwin (and looking at the age of this bug report still compared to the one of Plasma 5). So it does not seem to be one application kwin had to be adjusted to but one window manager that behaves different to all the others - at least in this small but not completely irrelevant case of utility windows. Perhaps this is the reason, too, why I sometimes have to dig for message and dialogue windows behind the main window of applications running with wine. But this just came to mind while typing, I have no prove for it being another instance of the same problem. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
