Description Michal Vyskocil 2010-01-15 12:14:44 UTC

Version:            (using Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources

Window grouping is the cool feature of a new kwin. But it has some bugs - for instance when I run Kmail and then Kontact, I got two independent windows. After moving them to one group there's not possible switch to Kmail from Kontact's left toolbar. And worse think is that clicking on kmail's stautus icon will kill the group at all.

Not sure if it's related to kwin or kontact/kmail.

I can reproduce this bug here under KDE SC 4.3.90.
I start Kontact and KMail resulting in two windows, once I click "E-Mail" in the left pane of kontact, the kmail window is activcated.
Now I merge both windows to have one "tabbed" window, everything works fine for 1-2 seconds, then I cannot click this window anymore, the click goes "through" the window, resulting in clicking in my browser window which is underneath the kontact/kmail window.
Closing one of the applications from the window bar solves the problem.

Comment 2 Paul van Erk 2010-02-10 21:48:29 UTC

I have the same thing. Had it with RC3 and have it with the now released 4.4 (openSUSE Factory). It happens with xterm or any 2 applications, really. HOWEVER, my wife does not have this (same PC). Nor does a test user (clean profile) have it. So I'm the only one. I tried changing compositing settings and even turning it off, but it doesn't help. I tried style and window decoration defaults: doesn't help either.
