[Duplicate of #304] Raise window when new document is opened

[navdeeprana]

I am unable to reopen #304, so opening a new issue. I noticed the following:

• If sioyek was launched from gui, for example by double clicking a pdf, then opening another pdf via gui or from terminal fails to raise the window.
• If sioyek was launched from terminal, for example using sioyek test.pdf, and another pdf is opened using gui it fails, however if I open the pdf from another terminal, the window is raised.

I am unable to reproduce this issue on my system.

• Which sioyek version are you using?
• What operating system are you using?
• If using linux, which window manager?

Sorry, here is the information

Sioyek 1.5.0
Arch Linux 5.19.13-arch1-1
Cinnamon 5.4.12, muffin (mutter) 5.4.7

Does the issue happen with the latest experimental build here: https://github.com/hexomancer/sioyek/releases ?

[navdeeprana]

I checked it and yes, it does. Is it possible to run sioyek in debug mode?

You'll have to compile it yourself in debug mode.

[navdeeprana]

And how do I do that? Build instructions do not mention it.

Modify this line: https://github.com/ahrm/sioyek/blob/4b89a80b4f491771cd032aad259fec8470ab4652/pdf_viewer_build_config.pro#L10 to this:

CONFIG += c++17 debug
