Focus Problem with version 1.3.7

[Burnett, R. <rbu...@qu...>]

Hello!

I've been trying to get my icewm to function as I would like but I am not having a lot of luck.  I've tried using the focus_mode for sloppy focus AND custom modes, but there is one thing that just will not work.

I stopped using focus_mode 2 because I could not make icewm raise a window if an application asks for it to be raised.  Instead, it would just blink in the taskbar.  With focus_mode 0 and the appropriate settings in the preferences, I am able to get this to work as I'd like.

What does not work is this situation.

1)  focus is on WINDOW A.  I hit a keyboard combination and WINDOW B pops up in front of WINDOW A and under my cursor.  I hit something on WINDOW B and it closes WINDOW B and the mouse is left over WINDOW A but WINDOW A does not take focus back.

I thought for sure 'StrongPointerFocus=1' would be the answer, but this setting isn't making a difference.

Is there something I am missing?  Basically I have settings windows that pop up in a CAD environment and when I close them, my focus doesn't return.  I have to take the cursor OUT of the window and back in to get it to take focus (or of course click on the window).

Thoughts?
