COPY OF ORIGINAL MESSAGE RESENT TO LIST FROM DIFFERENT EMAIL ADDRESS TO BYPASS TDF's BROKEN EMAIL FILTERS!!! Yes Bill, I know exactly what you are talking about. I have seen and used numerous Windows and Linux machines where opening the LO does not grab the focus in the same way as most other programs do. A LO defect I have simply learned to live with. There are at least 2 open Bugzilla related reports: https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=48300 https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=75471 Some argue that they are different issues, I disagree, because it is only the splash logo that pulls the focus to the LO window, with the "-nologo" parameter set or for second instances where LO doesn't already hold the focus, the code makes no attempt to set the window focus. Coding to set the the window focus under Windows & Linux (don't know OSX) is "Programming 101" stuff and should be listed as an "Easy Hack". It has been suggested that this _might_ be fixed in version 4.5, but not in any the dev builds I have tested so far. Is there a solution? None that I am aware of, but adding a comment to one or both the above report may help to attract a developer's interest.
