I have had LO (previously OOo) on my Linux computers since 2005 and I have always had this problem, but today I finally decided to see if there was a way to fix it. During that time I have had all kinds of distros (Ubuntu mostly, but also Fedora, OpenSUSE, Debian, and others), versions of distros, and desktop environments (Gnome, KDE, etc.). I currently have Xubuntu 14.04, up to date with LO 4.3.8.2, from the repository. I should add that during all these years I have occasionally used the official release from OOo or LO, but the focus problem remains.
By 'focus problem' I mean that when I restore LO from having been minimized to the panel the LO window does not take the focus like all other programs do. I have to click somewhere on the window to get it to take the focus. Until I click on the window I can't type in the document. This also means that if I restored the window to the desktop and try to minimize it again right away it won't minimize just by clicking on the icon in the panel until I click on the window to get it to take the focus. Also, if I have the LO window on the desktop and am using it, but temporarily switch to another window on the desktop (as is the case right now where I am typing this message in a window from my mail client), when the active window is minimized or closed LO should take the focus again, but it does not. Even if it can't be fixed I would like to know why this happens only with LO.
