Description Simon Perreault 2003-10-13 17:20:39 UTC 
Version:           kwin_iii (using KDE Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources

Start XMMS. Enable equalizer and playlist windows. Press alt-tab. See that all three XMMS windows are shown. Only the main window should be shown.

Is this a xmms or kwin bug? What hints are set?
Comment 2 Jedd 2004-03-15 09:16:08 UTC 
Interesting, now with KDE 3.2.1 (Debian unstable) I'm seeing alt-tab showing up all three sub-windows (f.e. xmms main, playlist, equalizer) but as I alt-tab thru and select one at a time, it slowly loses those extra entries in the alt-tab task selector.  Ie, if I do that three times, then I get back to a single xmms item in the alt-tab selector.

This makes life easier (my desktop's open for days at a time) but it's still a bit weird as far as 'normal' behaviour goes.

It may well be a problem with the way that xmms registers 'sub' windows when it creates them.
Comment 3 Jedd 2004-10-06 04:13:56 UTC 
With kde 3.3.0 beta 1 (debian unstable still) I'm seeing this back to normal - even with playlist & equaliser windows open at session start, I get a single instance of 'xmms' showing in the alt-tab cycle.

Thanks,
Jedd.

I'm using KDE 3.3.1 and I get all three XMMS windows in the Alt-Tab list.
Comment 5 Tristan Miller 2004-10-19 14:24:01 UTC 
Perhaps this bug is related to Bug 91670.
Comment 6 Simon Perreault 2005-05-26 04:27:01 UTC 
Can't reproduce in 3.4.0.
Comment 7 Tristan Miller 2005-05-26 14:41:18 UTC 
I can reproduce it just fine in 3.4.0.  Please reopen.
Comment 8 Simon Perreault 2005-05-26 15:18:01 UTC 
Mmmm, this bug is weird.
Comment 9 Tristan Miller 2005-07-08 03:13:31 UTC 
Upgraded to 3.4.1, and bug no longer occurs for me.

Comment 11 Nir Dremer 2005-08-11 18:22:00 UTC 
the bug never happened to me in 3.4.1, but now in 3.4.2 - alt-tab shows gkrellm.
Comment 12 Leo Spalteholz 2005-12-17 21:26:36 UTC 
Cannot reproduce in 3.4.3 with XMMS 1.2.10
Comment 13 Lukáš Tinkl 2006-03-15 15:18:06 UTC 
Can't reproduce any longer in KDE 3.5, closing
