Created attachment 63420 [details]
Shows current and desired behaviour of hovering shaded windows

Version:           unspecified
OS:                unspecified

If the option "Enable hover" in the advanced tab in window behaviour settings is enabled a shaded window gets unshaded when the cursor is moved over it and shaded again when the cursor leaves the window; the window's z-position is not affected.

It would be great if there'd be an option that would bring the hovered window to the front.

I hope the attached image describes my wish better than my words.

Regards

Jean DeLuc

Reproducible: Didn't try



Expected Results:  
Mouse is over shaded window: Window is raised, unshaded and focused.
Mouse isn't anymore over window: window is sent back, shaded and loses focus.

Sounds like you also want to use focus follows mouse with auto raise. In future you might get quicker answers to such questions on forum.kde.org. That said: sorry for the rather late reply.
