Take focus back from Danbooru window #74

Closed fire-eggs closed 3 years ago

When switching workspaces, the Danbooru window inevitably gets focus. Should switch focus back to main window automatically in that case.

I had questions about what is Danbooru for a while by you mentioned it. Simply I thought - is it meaning of ’ダンボウル’ ? It meaning a 'brown-colored thick paper pannel' mostly used in amazon packaging material, mostly paper box.

But I found it is just not an 'brown-colored thick paper pannel, danbooru' in simple text - a big community for H-漫画 in western culture. Now I feel like to know something kinda forbidden fruit ... hmm...

Thanks for about https://github.com/danbooru/danbooru, is it you mentioned right ? I will check your danbooru case too.

Hmmm, I don't think of Danbooru as a purely "H" site, but on consideration there is a lot of hentai there! Maybe I'm just jaded?

The "Danbooru window" sub-project is driven by Danbooru2019. Alas, that project is a little difficult to make readily available: it requires image files to be set up in a particular tree structure and a SQLite database. [The database file is currently 7.3G in size.] I hope the secondary window opens when those dependencies are missing ...

The "challenge" I'm having with the Danbooru window is how best to work with "secondary windows". For instance, I'm thinking that Exif metadata display might be shown via a secondary window, and the options window as well. [I'm debating it because Exif display might be better done as an overlay.]

The Danbooru window is a problem because as here, it grabs focus. But it also shows as a 2d icon in the taskbar, doesn't minimize when the main window minimizes, and doesn't restore when the main window is restored.

Ian Macarthur's "dockable group" is looking really good to me right now, with some tweaks to the "look". [I'll post a link as soon as I find it again] I've not taken it very far yet. Other dock/floating window packages have some limits.

OK, I can't find a link but the ZIP is small enough so here ... dockable_group2.zip

Should be a non-issue now with the toolbars branch.
