1) Pop-ups should not grab focus. It is an usability killer! It forces user to watch pop-ups instead of doing anything useful during the installation.
Please, please use properly initialized transient windows for all pop-ups ones. Except "user action required", you should not grab focus.
We are setting the popup windows as transient just fine. You can test it on KDE and compare to yast-qt. I attached a Python coded test case that reflects that. The problem is with Metacity. It has a too short time span on user interaction (or none), and doesn't keep transient dialogs minimized when the main one is.
It may be another bug, for metacity. But I was not accurate: My window is not minimized. I left it as is, only got other windows front and started to do other things. I am not complaining, that progress windows and not minimized, but that: - Every each new progress window gets focus again. Very annoying. While writing an email, I had to: Click to mail window, type two characters, click to mail window, type third character etc. - If the window is in back, transient windows should be back as well. Only enhancement proposal. -- Best Regards / S pozdravem, Stanislav Brabec software developer --------------------------------------------------------------------- SUSE LINUX, s. r. o. e-mail: sbrabec@suse.cz Lihovarská 1060/12 tel: +420 284 028 966 190 00 Praha 9 fax: +420 284 028 951 Czech Republic http://www.suse.cz/ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+help@opensuse.org
