I find that I can get this more reliably to occur or not occur by varying how long I wait before releasing alt+tab while switching workspaces. If I'm super fast, the window in my target workspace seems to rather reliably gain and retain focus while if I wait for the launcher to fully disappear I can perhaps guarantee the window will not have focus.
It also seems that making the target window fullscreen (not just maximized) possibly makes it immune to this problem. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/778578 Title: Problem with window focus when switching virtual desktops To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/778578/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
