Version: (using KDE 3.5.9) Installed from: Gentoo Packages I've been trying to use Yakuake for several times and have always been turned off by the same thing. When I use terminal emulators I tile them (either in KDE using Quadkonsole or several terminal windows open in a tiling WM) and dedicate one desktop to only that. This is to have a better overview over all the terminals and to quickly go from one to another. For this I use in KWin (and other WMs) focus following the mouse. From what I saw, a full-screen always-on-top Yakuake with split-screen bound to only one desktop would be perfect for my needs ...if it wasn't for the focus on left-click. What happens now: * I need to left-click into the session/part of the screen in order to get its focus What I would expect: * Focus between split-screen sessions should follow the mouse cursor. Or better yet, follow the same focus rules as the user set in the KWin settings.

Thanks :)
FWIW, I decided against reading out the kwin setting because: a) ... it would create a dependency against an external config file name and config key staying the same. The likelyhood that it will is high, but there's still a risk of it breaking. b) ... the application-local setting would have been needed anyway since not everyone is using Yakuake in KDE and might not have kwin or System Settings/KControl around, or maybe they want to use this mode independently of their window manager setting. So, it's an option under "Behavior" in the config dialog.
Thanks for the explanation. It does make more sense to put it outside KWin, when you think about it. I just found another reason: some users might want to use the focus under mouse inside Yakuake sessions, but still use e.g. focus on click in their KWin settings.
Yeah, that was the "or maybe they want to use this mode independently of their window manager setting" in my last sentence :P :).
Whoops ...I really need to start going to sleep earlier O_o
