Software loses focus when popping up "bindfiles written" window. #74

Open xizar opened 1 month ago

xizar commented 1 month ago

After "write binds", when the popup with the after-event info (what files written etc) appears, both BC and that popup hide behind everything. This is annoying as then I have to tab over or otherwise find it to grab the "/bindloadfile ..." phrase to copy and then paste into CoX. This is annoying, as it really makes the very nice "send to clipboard" button" useless as I still have to fumble with finding the window and I might as well just select and ctrl C it over.

I notice this every time I mess with binds in BC while CoX is open.

I'd noticed this on occasion and thought it was a side effect of my window management preferences on Linux. I've tinkered with it a little bit to try to make it do the right thing when it displays that dialog. I know that if CoH thinks it's received keyboard/mouse focus, it raises itself, and there's nothing to be done for that, but this wee release now tries to force the dialog to the top of the stack immediately after displaying it. Seems to work better for me, but let me know your luck.

Is this working any better for you?

xizar commented 1 month ago

Not consistently, but yes, much more. I've not been able to figure out a consistent way to make it not work.

OK cool, I'll leave this open for now in case a consistent way to fool it can be found. Keep me posted; glad it's better at least.
