Description Johannes Jowereit 2007-08-16 20:46:12 UTC

Version:           0.9.2 (using KDE KDE 3.5.7)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs
OS:                Linux

When the Image Editor is already open and I click on an image in the DigiKam main window, the Image Editor window
displays the right image and is brought to the front, but does not get the focus.

When I create a window-specific rule setting the Focus Stealing Prevention (FSP) to "None", the window properly gets the
focus. However, even with FSP set to "Low", it does not work.

Since the default setting for FSP in KDE is "Normal", it will not work in a normal KDE environment.

Gilles,

what about this one? Is it valid? Can we change this behavior in digiKam itself or is it a general KDE problem. Otherwise we could close it.

Andi,

Here, image editor always take focus when it openned.

It's a specific linux box problem i think

I confirm. I cannot reproduce this problem on my computers...

Hmm for me it doesn't work, the editor window is never focused. But I don't know if it is digiKam's fault or KDE in general.

This is a long standing, and rather irritating issue. I tried turning the kwin "focus stealing prevention" feature off, but that does not help.

It it *not* working for me.

Did you try to setfocus() on the window explicitly?
