[opensuse] Yast2 grabbing window focus
I love the new 10.3. Thanks for developing it. When I run Yast2 Software Management it opens windows to report it is doing various things with repositories. It opens and then closes lots of windows. Each time it opens a new window it takes the focus away from the window I am working in and I have to click my window to get back to work. Again and again. It seems to do this with both GTK and QT. Could Yast open just one windows and display all its messages in that window? I think that was the behavior in 10.2. Thanks.

It seems to do this with both GTK and QT. It is ok under kwin (kde's window manager) because kwin's focus stealing prevention copes well with it, however, if you're using metacity (gnome) or compiz then it will indeed steal focus. Could Yast open just one windows and display all its messages in that window? I think that was the behavior in 10.2. Actually 10.2 behaved in the same way. It would be certainly preferable to use a single window. This is an annoyance everyone is aware of. _ Benjamin Weber -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Are you running KDE? The new window steals focus problem is largely in the window manager. If you're running KDE, right click on any window title bar, and select Configure Window behaviour, then go to Advanced, and raise the Focus Stealing Prevention Level (not too high, because then all new windows will open in the background :) Could Yast open just one windows and display all its messages in that window?

I use KDE and just started YaST and it didn't grabbed focus from KMail for a second. For KDE: Look in a Configure Desktop Desktop Window Behavior Tab Advanced 'Focus stealing prevention level:' Here is set to 'Low' and 'Hide utility windows for inactive applications' is checked. -- Regards, Rajko. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: [opensuse] Yast2 grabbing window focus
This is an annoyance everyone is aware of. Scenario: typing in an IRC client and you are also installing updates. The focus gets stolen but you are still typing and since some of the windows also focus the abort button you inadvertently hit it because the focus was stolen. Now you scream and get upset. Yes this has happened to me and it took a while to figure out that you don't type anything while the updates are installing and the focus keeps getting stolen. Haha.. I kept thinking why couldn't it all be done in just one window with a progress bar and a label telling me what's happening. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Simply start up yast in a different workspace, and work in another. It should not bother you too much. At least, that's what I do in 10.2, at least the main window doesn't grab the focus this way. The pops up go to the active workspace, but not in focus. Maybe 10.3 is different. In that case... you could start a second simultaneous graphical session. That one will surely not steal focus. - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
