Apps which take the WM_TAKE_FOCUS hint often don't show keyboard focus. #10

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Applications such as firefox, which specify the WM_TAKE_FOCUS hint, and
which don't set their focus to their toplevel window after receiving it,
display a white box around their layout boxes, indicating that they don't
have keyboard focus when, in fact, they do.

I dont know if this is the same problem or not, but the app that I see losing
keyboard focus is xnest- I can open a client in xnest (running some other window
manager than wmii in it) and kill it and open another, clients in there lose 
keyboard
focus until I focus on another window and come back

I have adkilgore's problem with Firefox 3 and Amarok (apps losing keyboard 
focus and
I have to switch to another app and back to get it back).

This is "fixed", in the sense that I've stopped sending WM_TAKE_FOCUS to apps 
which
don't have the noinput hint set. To hell with them. At any rate, wmii is not 
the only
WM to do this (according to the wine mailing list), so apps already have to 
deal with it.
