With the window list? Alt-tab? Something else? -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

I raised the windows in this example via the Window List buttons, but actually, the same thing occurs after raising with Alt-Tab. When searching through gconf-editor for "focus" in the key names and key values, the only relevant results I see, including the one you mentioned, are: /apps/metacity/general/focus_new_windows = smart (possible values: smart, strict) /apps/metacity/general/focus_mode = click (possible values: click, sloppy, mouse) But yeah, here's the steps again: 1. Open two gnome-terminal's, Window A and Window B. 2. If either A or B opens maximized, restore them to their unmaximized state. 3. Maximize A (and B, if you wish) and then raise B via Window List or Alt-tab. 4. Grab the title-bar of B and try to move it; A takes focus and is moved/unmaximized instead. Interestingly, I just now somehow managed to stop this behavior. I should mention that I normally maximize a window by double-clicking it's title bar; that's how I have the title bar's double-click configured here. I'm considering that when I maximized using the maximize title bar button (with the skin/theme I'm using), may have been what "cured" this behavior. I'll see if I can confirm this and whether or not changing focus_mode/focus_new_windows to something else and back again will help. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Bottom line: as long as you maximize Window A by double-clicking the title bar, it will happen. So apparently the code for double-clicking is either different from a regular click on the maximize button, or it needs to differentiate between the two and act accordingly. I could maybe take a look at the source code, but I'm unsure of how to build a new package from it. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

We might want to do a maintenance update for this (so reopening to track this), but I think it'd be safer if the patch gets committed upstream first. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
