lost focus when switching input source #313

Open digitalsatori opened 10 years ago

digitalsatori commented 10 years ago

I use ibus as IME in my ubuntu box, as I will need to input both English and Chinese characters. guake used to work fine with ibus, I can switch back and forth input method in a guake shell without losing focus.

With a recent update, every time I do Ctrl+Space to switch the input method, guake will lost focus and auto hide itself (I set in the preference, auto hide when losing focus), which is very annoying.

It's not a hotkey problem. I changed the "Ctrl+Space" to other key combination for input method switching, and the same issue happened when I switch the input method.

Can someone advise me what could be the course of the problem?

BTW, don't know whether it is helpful for your debuging. When I launch the guake at front end, I see a lot of warning like: (guake:8977): libglade-WARNING **: unknown attribute `swapped' for .

Confirmed in Ubuntu 14.04 (Unity) with Guake 0.4.4, English/Russian input sources.

This bug is from very long time and it's the only reason I do not use Guake as my main terminal emulator. I don't know why clicking Ctrl key is stealing focus, but it's very annoying.

Focus is not lost on Ctrl on my system, but when pressing "Alt". I agree, this is annoying (see #352)

I have disabled HUD key on Ubuntu 12.04 and it works great. On 14.04.1 disabling does not help. Caps Lock and Ctrl does not steal focus. But Alt does.

Hi there, I saw a lot of lost focus issue here. But, the root cause of the issue could be somewhere else. Please look at the bug report here on launchpad: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-settings-daemon/+bug/1244090

Any solutions to the problem in Ubuntu 24.04?
