ssh-askpass windows comes up behind Tilda not in front #453

Hi! I come from using the Unity Desktop on Ubuntu 18.04. Recently switch to Pop OS running Gnome 3.

On Unity when ssh-askpass or one of its variants (ssh-askpass-fullscreen, ssh-askpass-gnome), was called to enter a passphrase it would appear on top of Tilda. Now with Gnome version 3.36.8, ssh-askpass or variants windows appear under Tilda, I can see them through the transparent terminal.

I have disable the disable-workarounds flag which I found at org.gnome.desktop.wm.preferences instead of at org.gnome.desktop.preferences as the wiki suggests.

In the preferences under the Auto Hide section I have ticked "Hide when Tilda loses focus.", but none of this has brought the ssh-askpass windows to the foreground.

Any help you can give would be appreciated! Frederick

OK, I figured out that if I use the Twitcher (Alt-Tab) I can get the ssh-askpass window to come to the foreground, so that is the work around for now. In reality I expect that when a password or passphrase is being asked for that this will come to the foreground.
