: 1.  Open a directory while you have some non-rox application open
: 2.  bring up an action window of some sort (ie, change icon for an
: item)
: 3.  either complete the action, or hit cancel.

: focus will jump to another application instead of back to the ROX
: window you opened that you are performing the actions on.

I'm not able to reproduce that.

  Red Hat Linux 6.2
  XFree86-3.3.6
  WindowMaker-0.65.1, with the following potentially relevant preferences:
    OpenTransientOnOwnerWorkspace =3D YES;
    WindowPlacement =3D smart;
    AutoFocus =3D YES;
    FocusMode =3D manual;
    RaiseDelay =3D 0;
  gtx+-1.2.10
  rox-1.1.7
 =20
Here's what i did:

  - Had several windows open (a few xterms).
  - Opened /usr/apps from the rox pinboard.  The directory window
    appeared, partially overlapped with an xterm, and got focus.
  - [RightClicked] on an application directory.
  - Chose "App Dir 'appname'"->"Set Icon..." from the menu
  - The "Set Icon" dialog appeared, with focus.
  - Chose "Cancel".
  - The "Set Icon" dialog disappeared.  Focus went back to the
    directory window.

Are you sure you don't have sloppy focus turned on or something like
that?
