[Bug 495403] Re: Do not raise windows or dialogs without user input

2014-01-23 Thread Triqui
Wow, now, after all this time I found this bug - https://bugs.launchpad.net/compiz/+bug/455241 Which seems to be getting a little more attention. I had used Ubuntu for a couple of months only when I reported this bug, but I swear I searched a lot to see if this bug had already been reported. And

Ok, thanks. I will. But I think you haven't read my posts here. First. If I have a window opened and it's focused I don't want any other window to move in front, no matter whether I'm typing or interacting with it or not (maybe just reading something). Second. If I do something to open a new

It is better written here: http://git.gnome.org/browse/metacity/tree/doc/how-to-get-focus-right.txt 1) If the window takes a while to launch and the user starts interacting with a different application, the new window should not take focus. 2) If the window that will appear was not

Triqui: Don't apologise! You've done nothing wrong by filing the bug here. It may not have been a valid paper cut in the end, but we cannot expect all our users to know exactly how the paper cut project works. The best place to discuss this would be either the Ayatana Discussion mailing list,

I'm afraid it was decided this is not a valid paper cut and not something we want to fix this way. Not only is the coding and the testing (don't forget the testing for an issue like this!) that would be required to fix the bug too much to make the bug a valid papercut, but Mark Shuttleworth

Thank you for your time and your info, Sense. You have to excuse me cause I'm very new to linux and ubuntu. And I've been trying to get into reporting bugs but with so many projects and web pages and components and all that stuff, I'm still a bit unsure about what's the best place to report

Sorry. Why you set it to invalid and incomplete? Let me know what I need to do, cause I really want to see this fixed. Just a new and brief try to clarify. I've checked on the internet and tried every setting I found (for metacity) but I cannot get the desired behavior. That is: 1. I have a
