Public bug reported: When there are multiple instances open from the same program and you close one instance from that group, the focus is not set to the next instance in that group. It is not clear what the rules of resetting the focus are, but it is not expected behaviour that focus is set to a 'random' app.
Use case 1: - a user has multiple instances open of EOG (non-tabs) - he wants to close all those instances by clicking on the close-button on top one by one - everytime he closes an instance, he has to switch (by the launcher or otherwise) to the next instance he likes to close which is very counterproductive Use case 2: - a user has Firefox open and the separate download-window - he closes the download window and expects to return to Firefox - this is however not the case, so he is somewhere lost ** Affects: unity (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/916416 Title: Closing an app from a group of apps should give focus to the next app in that group To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/+bug/916416/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
