I spoke too soon. Behavior is as expected, so long as the only windows open are ROX-Filer windows. If there is another application open, the focus will always go to it. I don't get this at all... Anybody else on the list using windowmaker? -- Greg On 06 Sep 2001 12:01:29 EDT, Greg Spath said: > It turned out to be a WindowMaker bug. > > I just downloaded and compiled the latest version, and everything is > working as it should. > > Thanks for the prompt response! > > -- Greg > -- Greg Spath gs...@fr... http://freefall.homeip.net/ |

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. -- Greg -- Greg Spath gs...@fr... http://freefall.homeip.net/ |

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. :=20 : 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? --=20 jim knoble | jmk...@po... | http://www.pobox.com/~jmknoble/ (GnuPG fingerprint: 31C4:8AAC:F24E:A70C:4000::BBF4:289F:EAA8:1381:1491) |
