[Bug 31298] New: Window managers can't switch between open Excel files
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=31298 Bug #: 31298 Summary: Window managers can't switch between open Excel files Product: Wine Version: 1.5.9 Platform: x86 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org ReportedBy: alister.hood(a)gmail.com Classification: Unclassified I'm using the setting "allow the window manager to control the windows". 1. When more than one file is open in Excel 2007, they are each shown in my tray (lxpanelx) and my window manager's task switcher (I've tried with metacity and openbox). Activating these entries only raises a tiny little window with nothing in it, not the actual Excel window with the file. There is also an additional entry, and activating it does raise Excel, but it does not allow me to switch between the different Excel files. The only way to switch between the different Excel files is using "View-Window-Switch Windows". I'm guessing this is related to these messages which Metacity outputs when the second Excel file is opened: Window manager warning: Log level 8: meta_display_register_x_window: assertion `g_hash_table_lookup (display->window_ids, xwindowp) == NULL' failed Window manager warning: Log level 8: meta_display_register_x_window: assertion `g_hash_table_lookup (display->window_ids, xwindowp) == NULL' failed 2. Word and Excel behave differently with multiple open files on Windows, so naturally they also have different problems with Wine. When more than one file is open in Word 2007, they are each shown in my tray and my window manager's task switcher, and activating these entries raises the correct Word window with the document. But using "View-Window-Switch Windows" does not work in Word (N.B. I can't actually test this on the latest Wine, as with it Word always crashes on startup :( ) -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

It happens to me on three different notebooks. One runs debian sid x86_64, wine 1.4.1 (debian package) and has office 2007 installed in a clear wineprefix. The second one has debian sid i386, wine 1.4.1 (debian package) and office 2007. The third one runs linux mint 13 x86_64 with wine 1.5.24 (wine packages for ubuntu) and has office 2010 installed. Notice that the three machines also have different window managers (the two debian machines use xfce, the mint machine has cinnamon) and different graphical cards (the i386 debian and the mint machine have an intel embedded card, the x86_64 debian machine has an nvidia card with the binary nvidia drivers). The problem is very easy to replicate (and it has been perfectly described). Just open two excel files and try to switch from one to the other using your window manager (e.g., through alt-tab). The "tiny little window with nothing on it" will appear in the top left corner of the screen and stay there until you close excel. Please, let me know if I can help by providing additional information. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.
