I had raise_on_click set to true (checked in gconf-editor). If I set it to false, then the problematic behaviour seems to go away in my limited testing, which if I understand correctly is the reverse of what you were expecting. --Dylan Thurston -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Did you happen to set /apps/metacity/general/raise_on_click to false? IIRC this also has an impact on this issue. Cheers, -- .''`. : :' : We are debian.org.

There are two options, smart and strict; what do you meen by "disabled"? In any case, the new window does get the focus, it's just not raised. --Dylan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

Should this be reassigned to metacity, then?

severity 510543 minor thanks I'm not sure that anything can be done about this in GIMP, since it's usually up to the window manager to decide where & how to place new windows. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Bug#510543: gimp: Newly opened files sometimes appear under old window
Package: gimp Version: 2.4.7-1 Severity: normal When I open a new file by pressing 'Ctrl-O' in an existing image window, the new image appears underneath the existing one, which is confusing. (The new window has the focus but is not raised; since my images are exactly the same size, it is completely invisible.) I am using metacity 1:2.22.0-2 as my window manager on a dual-head setup. -- System Information: Debian Release: 5.0 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (50, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.27.2 Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages gimp depends on: ii gimp-data 2.4.7-1 Data files for GIMP ii libaa1 1.4p5-37+b1 ascii art library ii libart-2.0-2 2.3.20-2 Library of functions for 2D graphi ii libatk1.0-01.22.0-1 The ATK accessibility toolkit ii libc6 2.7-16GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libcairo2 1.6.4-7 The Cairo 2D vector graphics libra ii libdbus-1-31.2.1-4 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libdbus-glib-1-2 0.76-1simple interprocess messaging syst ii libexif12 0.6.16-2.1library to parse EXIF files ii libfontconfig1 2.6.0-3 generic font configuration library ii libfreetype6 2.3.7-2 FreeType 2 font engine, shared lib ii libgimp2.0 2.4.7-1 Libraries for the GNU Image Manipu ii libglib2.0-0 2.16.6-1 The GLib library of C routines ii libgtk2.0-02.12.11-4 The GTK+ graphical user interface ii libgtkhtml2-0 2.11.1-2 HTML rendering/editing library - r ii libhal10.5.11-6 Hardware Abstraction Layer - share ii libjpeg62 6b-14 The Independent JPEG Group's JPEG ii liblcms1 1.17.dfsg-1 Color management library ii libmng11.0.9-1 Multiple-image Network Graphics li ii libpango1.0-0 1.20.5-3 Layout and rendering of internatio ii libpng12-0 1.2.27-2 PNG library - runtime ii libpoppler-glib3 0.8.7-1 PDF rendering library (GLib-based ii librsvg2-2 2.22.2-3 SAX-based renderer library for SVG ii libtiff4 3.8.2-11 Tag Image File Format (TIFF) libra ii libwmf0.2-70.2.8.4-6 Windows metafile conversion librar ii libx11-6 2:1.1.5-2 X11 client-side library ii libxext6 2:1.0.4-1 X11 miscellaneous extension librar ii libxmu62:1.0.4-1 X11 miscellaneous utility library ii libxpm41:3.5.7-1 X11 pixmap library ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3.3.dfsg-12 compression library - runtime Versions of packages gimp recommends: ii gimp-gnomevfs 2.4.7-1GNOME-VFS URI plugin for GIMP ii gimp-python 2.4.7-1Python support and plugins for GIM Versions of packages gimp suggests: ii ghostscript 8.62.dfsg.1-3.1 The GPL Ghostscript PostScript/PDF pn gimp-data-extras (no description available) pn gimp-help-en | gimp-help (no description available) ii libasound2 1.0.16-2ALSA library pn libgimp-perl (no description available) -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
