focus problem after closing windows #769

Closed Anders-Gustavsson closed 2 months ago

Anders-Gustavsson commented 5 months ago

Expected behaviour

Start some xterm's, after closing one of them the focus should turn to the previously started (or focused xterm).

Actual behaviour

When an xterm is closed, no other window gets focus.

There is a number of other applications than xterm that gets the same problem, xmessage, emacs, java applications, xcalc...

The focus mode is default, that is click.

Steps to reproduce the behaviour

If not having click as focus mode:

gsettings set org.mate.Marco.general focus-mode click

start xterm:

xterm& xterm&

and then close one of them.

MATE general version

Problem in: 1.26.0

Worked fine in: 1.24.0

Package version

Problem in marco version: 1.26.0

Worked fine in marco version: 1.24.0

Linux Distribution

Problem in Linux mint 21.3

Worked fine in Linux mint 20.1

Link to bugreport of your Distribution (requirement)

As i understand the linux mint documentation, bugs should be reported in upstream projects.

I use click to focus (all I've ever used and the normal default) and was just unable to duplicate this in marco 1.27 from git master

Sorry for reporting this problem that has been fixed. I tried Fedora Linux 39 (MATE-Compiz) that has mate and marco 1.26.2 and it works good. I also compiled the code of marco 1.26.2 and got it to work with linux mint.
