Category: Behaviour Group: 0.65.x Status: Closed Resolution: Wont Fix Priority: 5 Submitted By: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Assigned to: Bradley T. Hughes (bradleyhughes) Summary: 0.65.0 and bzflag Initial Comment: The OpenGL bzflag in default mode opens a full screen unadorned window over everything else on the desktop (foreground). blackbox 0.65.0 (from the Mandrake rpm) does not deliver keyboard events to this window. According to Jon Trulson at xig: "without the -window paramater, bzflag will go fullscreen with a 'redirect override' window - meaning the WM is supposed to ignore the window (no decorations)." However, it does NOT mean that the WM shouldn't deliver keyboard events, and blackbox doesn't, at least to this game. If bzflag is run with -window -geometry 800x600 it comes up in an adorned window and then blackbox does deliver keyboard events and the game runs correctly. On the same system bzflag ran correctly in full screen mode under kde, gnome and iceWM. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Ed Anderson (nilbus1) Date: 2004-09-10 08:08 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1118298 I really think this should be fixed, at least in another release. I had this problem before and didn't realize it was a blackbox-specific problem. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Bradley T.

From the inter-client communication conventions manual (ICCCM), section 4.1.10: ... The user will not be able to move, resize, restak, or transfer the input focus to override-redirect window, since the window manager is not managing them. If if is necessary for a client to receiver keystrokes on an override-redirect window, ether the client must grab the keyboard, or the client must have another top-level window that is not override-redirect and that has selected the Locally Active or Globally Active focus model. The client may set the focus to the override-redirect window when the other (managed) window receives a WM_TAKE_FOCUS message or one of the events listed in section 4.1.7 in the description of the Globally Active focus model. ... ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=428680&aid=1021910&group_id=40696 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] List archives: http://asgardsrealm.net/lurker/splash/index.html Trouble?
