Version: (using KDE 4.3.1) Installed from: SuSE RPMs When you use alt+f2 to reach the run command and execute a command that runs in the background (like a script that mounts CIFS shares), focus does not return to application you were using when you pressed alt+f2. This is unexpected behavior. If you are using an application (kwrite in this instance) and you use alt+f2 to run a script, then focus should return to kwrite once the command has completed -- but it does not. The window title bar appears to have focus, but attempting to use any keyboard shortcuts (like ctrl+o to open a new file in kwrite) does nothing until you manually click the kwrite window again with the mouse. It is like kde4 is simply confused as to where focus should go. In this case, kwrite was the only application open in kde4 when the run command was executed. After executing the run command, the desktop appeared normal: http://www.3111skyline.com/download/openSUSE_bugs/kde4/screenshots/runcmd-no-return-focus.jpg But, as stated above, there was no focus for the keyboard in kwrite, so when I attempted to open a new file with ctrl+o, nothing happened. The keyboard was dead until I manually clicked the kwrite window with a mouse to give it focus again.
I can't reproduce here; is it still the case?
Please reopen if you can provide some more infos as I can't reproduce here and got no answer for >1 week
