I am basically a Gnome user but occasionally have a look at KDE, and since I installed SuSE 8.2 I've noticed an oddity. I'm sure that I used to be able to configure kde so that windows stayed in the stacking order when clicked on (i.e. when they gained input focus). However, this option doesn't seem to be available in KDE3.1. How do I disable auto-raising of windows in KDE3.1/SuSE8.2?

How do I disable auto-raising of windows in KDE3.1/SuSE8.2? I just tested it: Control Panel/Desktop/Windows Behavior/Focus Unclick Auto raise and Click Raise. The Click raise is kind of confusing. When checked it means click anywhere in the window.

These options aren't available in "Click to focus" mode - which is the default and my preferred way of working. Sorry, I should have been more clear!

Did you check the Actions panel. Change Inactive to Activate not
activate and raise.

Aha - that looks like it could be it! It was set to "Activate, raise and pass click". I've set it to "Activate and pass click", which should do it - I'll check next time I have a reason to log out and back in.
