Bring video windows top-level on open #42

Closed kevinsbarnard closed 9 months ago

kevinsbarnard commented 10 months ago

From Kyra:

Can we brainstorm on a way we can get the video window not to pop up right underneath the Gridview window? I am doing a lot of window shuffling around, especially with the SD files.

This may be possible using the show command in Sharktopoda 2. Otherwise, this may be tricky.

kevinsbarnard commented 9 months ago

Implemented in v0.8.0. A Sharktopoda 2 show command is sent when a localization is shown.

KSchlining commented 9 months ago

Currently using v0.8.0 and it doesn't look like this is fixed.

kevinsbarnard commented 9 months ago

@KSchlining Roger that. We have a command in Sharktpoda 2 (show) that's intended to bring a given video window top-level, and gridview is now sending that command to S2 as of v0.8.0. So, this may need a change in how the show command is handled within S2.

@hohonuuli Do you know if the show command will bring the focus to the S2 application within macOS, or does it just reorder its windows internally?

hohonuuli commented 9 months ago

Show should be bringing the given window the front but it does not change the focused application.

kevinsbarnard commented 9 months ago

In v0.8.1, the open -a command is run for app Sharktopoda in order to bring it to the forefront.
