            Bug ID: 56342
           Summary: Finale refuses to minimize or lose window focus
           Product: Wine-staging
           Version: 9.2
          Hardware: x86-64
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
          Assignee: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org

      Distribution: ---

The music notation software Finale refuses to stay minimized (it immediately
reappears after clicking the WM minimize button) and will also often not
relinquish focus when trying to use another app, especially if the two apps are
overlapping windows. This is a huge usability issue when using the software as
I can't switch the focus to other windows, and other important applications
stay buried underneath the Finale window until Finale is closed entirely.

This issue only happens in Wine Staging, and I was able to narrow the issue
down to the following commit:

commit abf67e73f7c6afe2eca9ee09ca2214f12700c6d1
Author: Dmitry Timoshkov <dmitry(a)baikal.ru>

    winex11.drv: Add support for _NET_ACTIVE_WINDOW. (v2)

    And use it as a backend in user32.SetActiveWindow().

    For bug #2155.

This bug is reproducible using the free trial version of Finale v27 available
here: https://www.finalemusic.com/free-trial/

See also: bug #2155 (https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2155)

I have reproduced this bug on KDE Neon User Edition 5.27 (hardware and VM
install) and Xubuntu 22.04 (VM install). I can provide system details if
desired, but they seem irrelevant here.

--- Comment #1 from S. Christian Collins <s_chriscollins(a)hotmail.com> ---
I should add: when testing Finale, close the start page or click "Default
Document" to gain the window manager buttons for minimize, etc. Also, this bug
was only tested using X11.
