Bug #: 34787 Summary: Improper focus Behaviour for undecorated windows Product: Wine Version: 1.7.4 Platform: x86 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: winex11.drv AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: medasaro@comcast.net Classification: Unclassified
When using wine in Linux with the 'Allow the window manager to decorate the windows' option in winecfg unchecked, applications open with their main windows out of focus. In order to bring the main window of a newly launched application into focus, it must be manually defocused by clicking on another open window and then brought back into focus again by being clicked on. The same problem applies with some applications that create windows without the standard decorations, such as iTunes.
Steps to reproduce: 1) Open winecfg and deselect the 'Allow the window manager to decorate the windows' option in the 'Graphics' tab. 2) Close winecfg. 3) Open winecfg again. 4) Note that the decoration on top of the winecfg window is now grey, indicating that it is out of focus. 5) Note that winecfg window will not come into focus by clicking on it or its title bar. 6) Bring another window from a native Linux application into focus by clicking on it. 7) Click on the winecfg window again and note that it now comes into focus and behaves normally.
