focus and auto-raise
by Thorsten Kranzkowski Oct. 10, 2002

Oct. 10, 2002

Hello! We're running quite successful the Lotus Notes Client under wine here. However there's one entry on my wishlist: Would it be possible to teach wine to _not_ auto raise windows when they get focus? We're using wine in managed mode so that it is possible to use several desktops etc. We prefer to use focus-when-mouse-enters-window mode but without automatically raising the windows. Unfortunately wine raises itself when it's getting focus. This leads to some undesireable effects like garbled popup-windows (when focus switches for the fraction of a second to the underlying main window - not much but enough to redraw the background) or oscillations (two main windows are on top of each other, due to 'lucky' timing and not being able drawing fast enough the lower window gets focus - so it gets raised and during drawing the new lower one gets focus ...) These effects are greatly reduced by using click-to-focus mode, but we don't want that :-) BTW: Many thanks for working printer support!

Problems with multiple Wine programs at once
by David D. Hagood Oct. 10, 2002

Oct. 10, 2002

I have the misfortune of needing to use Windows based DSP compilers for a project I am working on. Fortunately, they run under Wine just fine. So, the actual makefile is executed by a native GNU/Linux make, but the compile and assemble parts are Windows programs running under Wine (using Linux's binfmt_misc to launch them.) If I do a normal make, all is well. However, if I try to do a "make -j2" then after a few moments all the wine processes will freeze. Doing a ps -o wchan shows all the wine processes stuck in pipe_wait, and the wineserver process in do_poll. Has any body else seen this sort of behavior?

A windows program could gain access to some commands that shouldn't launch into normal windows. ___________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? -- Une adresse @yahoo.fr gratuite et en français !

Please ignore my previous posting (if it even showed up), the fault was nothing to do with wine. -- Matthew Davison

winedbg - walk wnd broken?
by Roger Eisenecher Oct. 9, 2002

Oct. 9, 2002

Hi List I am using winedbg with the commands "walk wnd" or "info wnd <handle>". But unfortunately both functions seems to have problems to retrieve the registered window classes. I get always the class "-- Unknown --" expect for the top window (desktop). Could some one explain me why this happen or if this is a known "feature" of winedbg? kindly regards roger
