Window forward not coming forward when clicking inside the window #850

Open djkraven opened 2 years ago

djkraven commented 2 years ago

When superputty is partially behind other windows and you click within the superputty window that it exposed it does not bring the full window forward. Instead, I am finding I have to try and mouse over the window edge and click to bring it forward. This appears to be new behavior with the 1.4.0.10 release.

Confirmed, Clicking on terminal session in the background properly gives focus, but does not bring window the foreground. This behavior is different from the previous release 1.4.0.9 which gave focus and also brought the app to the foreground. More investigation is needed to determine what changes might have caused this.

Comfirmed with Win10 and tested against 1.4.0.9, and current Trunk/Development version.

Also noticed that right-click on the session tab are and selecting a new session does not open the new session.

@djkraven can you elaborate? I just tested it and it worked as expected: right click existing session tab -> new session -> click session you want to open and that session opens normally.

djkraven commented 2 years ago

I just recheck and now it is working on the 1.4.0.10 but not on another system on the 1.4.0.9. It was happening early on the .10 so I am not sure what is causing it.

If you run into it again and have specifics to share, please open a new issue. Thanks for the testing!

As a (sometimes functional) workaround, clicking on the window border of the app or the border some of the tiled sessions seems to bring the app to foreground but it is finicky - not all parts of the border respond this way when clicking on them.

Any progress on this issue? Is a patch available?

I'm using Windows 10 Enterprise / SuperPutty Version 1.4.0.10 -When I use Superputty I have to hit the outer edge of the Superputty App in order to toggle over. Its a distraction. It was working fine with Superputty 1.4.0.9 - Does anyone know of a workaround.

Hi, is this issue likely to be fixed in a v1.5.x release?

Is this an issue whereby PuTTY is not passing back an event to SuperPuTTY?

This is still an issue in 1.5.0.0
