Version: 1.9.6 (using KDE 3.5.6 "release 85.1" , openSUSE ) Compiler: Target: i586-suse-linux OS: Linux (i686) release 2.6.18.8-0.3-default Hello, I am reading normally Linux Today Newsletter. In that newsletter are a number of newsitems with a short description and a URL for the long description. If I clicked on the URL the long description opened in a new screen, so you could start reading immediately. After updating to KDE 3.5.6 release 85.1 the above described process have changed. If I now click on a URL that item shows up in the taskbar as minimized URL and I have to click again on it to open the long description. I have searched how to change this behavior back to how it was, unfortunately without success. Any Idea ??? Regards, Frans
Created attachment 20701 [details] Example of Linux Today newsletter You can use this attachment to read it via Mail-Kontact and see whether you can reproduce my "inconvenience".
Can not reproduce this, works for me just fine. This is probably due to the focus stealing prevention in KWin. Try lowering the focus stealing prevention level in KControl->Desktop->Window Behavior->Advanced->Focus stealing prevention level. See if that helps.
Hello Thomas, Thanks for the hint. The focus stealing prevention was set to LOW, setting it to NONE restored the old behavior. Regards, Frans
Hello Thomas, Just for completeness a summary,with: 1 Focus policy "Strictly under mouse", all Focus stealing prevention levels generate the old behavior 2 Focus policy "Under mouse", all Focus stealing prevention levels generate the old behavior 3 Focus policy "Follow mouse", only Focus stealing prevention level "None" generate the old behavior 4 Focus policy "Click to focus", only Focus stealing prevention level "None" generate the old behavior Regards, Frans
