So first off, ArchLinux has recommended that same behavior since 2013, particular towards Firefox: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php?title=Openbox&oldid=251002#Windows_load_behind_the_active_window
This was added to the Lubuntu default configuration in 2016: https://git.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lubuntu-default-settings/commit/?id=2f54149674cf11b0455802e513a1738649714670 It sounds like it was done specifically to resolve an issue with pcmanfm opening terminals and not focusing the terminals despite having focusNew set to yes. This might still an issue in pcmanfm, I don't know. Luckily, for Lubuntu, we use pcmanfm-qt. So as far as I can see, we can get rid of the heavy-handed section from the lubuntu-default-configuration. ** Changed in: lubuntu-default-settings (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => Triaged ** Changed in: lubuntu-default-settings (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => Lubuntu Developers (lubuntu-dev) ** Changed in: lubuntu-default-settings (Ubuntu) Milestone: None => ubuntu-24.10 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1682927 Title: lubuntu-rc.xml config breaks focusNew config To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lubuntu-default-settings/+bug/1682927/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
