Sebastian: Are you sure your environment matches my description? You need to have "Select window when mouse moves over them" enabled in the Window preferences.
Because I've just checked with Hardy 6 and it still exposes this behavior (no desktop effects enabled). Steps to reproduce: 1) Make sure "Select window when mouse moves over them" is enabled in window preferences 2) Open Calculator (or any other app) 3) Open Character Map (or any other app) 4) Arrange the two windows that Calculator is partially hidden behind Character Map (see screenshot) 5) Hover the mouse over Calculator - it becomes the active window (as you can see in the screenshot) 6) Now hover the mouse over to the Calculator window list entry- you must take care not to hover over Character Map, so the focus is not changed 7) Click on the Calculator window list entry - Calculator is hidden which is clearly not my intension IMHO the easiest thing to do would be to introduce a new option that lets one set the preferences regarding this behavior. The current behavior is clearly a bug for me. But some might call it a feature. So why not make both camps happy? If you don't want to pollute the user interface - I can understand that great care must be taken here - why not expose the setting through the configuration editor? I would really appreciate if this issue could be addressed with a future release. Current behavior is really annoying.
