[Bug 272083] Re: Zenity windows appear underneath others
Hi all The zenity man page says that "zenity tries to find the terminal window it was launched from, and stays on top of that. You can disable it by unsetting the WINDOWID variable." I tried and this works fine for me: eog -f background.jpg & sleep1 # (to let eog find time to show the background image) WINDOWID= # yes: = and then nothing zenity This makes zenity appear "on top" of the background image.

[Bug 272083] Re: Zenity windows appear underneath others
My version of zenity is also 2.30.0, i mistyped it before, cause i was testing it on 9.10 too. Lately i realised that this behavior is a matter of the window manager. Running zenity from a terminal, its window doesn't go to the top in Gnome when i have other window active. It does, when running it by clicking on an icon. So the wm probably prevents the popups getting focus that are run from an inactive terminal. This is not an issue with Xfce's wm or other wm though that i tested on the same system. So it's probably the way metacity behaves by default. I tried to set the focus from smart to strict as the only option here with gconf-editor in /apps/metacity/general/focus_new_windows, but it doesn't help either. Seeing that the file /usr/share/zenity/zenity.ui has all its focus settings set to True by default (what the patch did provided in upper comments), i might say that it's not a zenity problem anymore, and it depends on the focus policy of the wm. -- Zenity windows appear underneath others https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/272083 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Saying it's "Fix Released", I guess it should work just fine under Ubuntu 10.04, but it doesn't.

It doesn't steal focus either. (zenity version 2.28.0) However, it works under my debian stable system (zenity 2.22.1).

[Bug 272083] Re: Zenity windows appear underneath others
Steve: If you look at zenity.glade more closely, it defines each possible top level widget on its own (eg Calendar, Question, Info dialog etc). So this bug affects all widget types, and they need to be individually fixed. The existing behavior (in intrepid and earlier releases) was that zenity would take focus - due to how the window manager was handling things. In jaunty, window managers are finally respecting options like that properly, which is how this came up. Additionally, i've reviewed upstream's change history. This bug was introduced in 2.23.1 in the middle of making a new release changelog. Looking at that, it really looks like it was an oversight to me.

[Bug 272083] Re: Zenity windows appear underneath others
This patch seems to be rather large for the change in question, I wonder if each of the changes is necessary or if this change is overreaching? The upstream bug linked here points out that having the pop-ups steal the focus, which I believe is the result of this change, will /also/ make people unhappy; I think what you ideally want here is for the window to open on top, but to not steal the focus? But neither the existing behavior, nor this change, give you that. I'm concerned about changing the behavior of this program so blatantly, so shortly before release. Mario, would it still meet your needs for mythbuntu if this change landed as an SRU instead, to give it more time to bake? -- Zenity windows appear underneath others https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/272083 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Re: [Bug 272083] Re: Zenity windows appear underneath others
Ladies and gentlemen, instead of adding an argument, --focus, to cause the Zenity dialog to steal the focus, I believe that stealing the focus should be the default behavior. Instead, please add an optional argument, only for use when there is a need to prevent the Zenity dialog from stealing the focus. This will prevent all who have come to depend on a Zenity dialog appearing on top of all other windows from having to rewrite all of their scripts. It seems that the vast majority of users want Zenity dialogs to appear on top of all other windows by default. The need for an extra argument should only apply to the minority of users--those who don't want the Zenity dialog to steal the focus. Perhaps this argument should be --subdue.

Thanks jcinacio! Works perfectly now. This is truly a bug, I agree with the comment above that the desired behavior of Zenity is to steal focus and demand user interaction.
