Bug ID: 443996
Summary: Inner Window Actions -> "Activate and raise" [but not
pass click] has no effect in focus-follows-mouse mode
Product: kwin
Version: 5.22.4
Platform: Fedora RPMs
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: minor
Priority: NOR
Component: core
Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: a...@cluonflux.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
After using Macs for work for several years, I've gotten used to MacOS's
behaviour when one clicks on an inactive window, in which the window is raised,
but doesn't receive the click that was responsible for the raise.
I'm using desktop Linux more regularly these days, where I like to use
focus-follows-mouse... Unfortunately, the KWin setting "raise but don't pass
click" seems to have no effect when focus-follows-mouse is enabled. I guess
when the window has focus, it's no longer considered "inactive"?
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. enable focus-follows-mouse
2. set all clicks in Window Actions to "Activate and raise"
3. arrange two windows so some click target is visible in the "behind" window
4. focus on the "forward" window
5. move the cursor to the "behind" window
6. click a click target in the "behind" window
OBSERVED RESULT
The click is passed through to the behind window
EXPECTED RESULT
The "Activate and raise" [but not pass click] setting should also be effective
for windows that have focus, but are not raised.
