[Bug 22265] New: Total Commander: Application opens a window which should be visible but is hidden by the current window

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=22265

Summary: Total Commander: Application opens a window which
                    should be visible but is hidden by the current window
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.1.41
          Platform: x86-64
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: [e-mail]
        ReportedBy: [e-mail]

1. Click (menu) Commands -> Search, to open the "Find Files" window.
2. Click the "Advanced" tab, click "Date between:".
3. Click the ">>" button to open the "Date:" window. This bit is annoying,
because it's a bit random.. the "Date:" window is normally visible (see
attached screenshot), but sometimes it is hidden.
4. In case it's visible, while it is still open, click the "Find Files" window,
then click ESC.
5. Now, whenever you click the ">>" button, the "Date:" window is opened but it
is hidden. You can also notice that after you click ">>", the "Find Files"
window still appears as focused (even though the hidden "Date:" window has the
focus now), and when you click it, it is (properly) redrawn as not focused.

The "Date:" window should always be visible when opened.

Total Commander 7.50a shareware

Can't confirm this bug report. Tested under wine 1.1.41 and
wine-1.1.42-146-g1c02a90 many times (80x ?)

Window manager: KDE 4.3.4

"Connection details" window opened behind the "Connect to ftp server" window

Another set of steps for reproducing the bug (these ones are easier to
execute):
1. Ctrl F (Connect to ftp server)
2. Click "New connection..." and ESC a few times, and notice the "FTP:
connection details" window appears in the front.
3. Click "New connection...", click the title of the "Connect to ftp server"
window, click ESC. Now, everytime you click "New connection..." the window is
opened in the back (see the 2nd attached screenshot).

I'm using the default Ubuntu Karmic Koala window manager, I think it's
Metacity.

The small window should always be in front of the main window, but you can see
it in the back

Somebody please try to reproduce the bug following the steps in comment 3, or
these ones, which describe a similar result:

- Start Total Commander 7.50a - NOT REGISTERED, notice the main window and the
"This program is Shareware" window appear.
- Press the "Program information", notice a help window appears, ignore it or
move it away.
- Press the title bar of the main TC window, notice the small "This program is
Shareware" window goes behind the main window (see attached screenshot). On XP
it stays in the front.

I've tested it on a default Ubuntu 10.04, Wine 1.1.42. The splash screen and
the Date chooser also goes to the background.

Hi Alex, there have been some changes which fixed similar behavior in between
1.2-rc1 and 1.2-rc2. Could you retest under latest git?

TC main window does not appear in the front and thus it is not fully visible

Tried with wine-1.3.13, all new windows open on top of the "parent" window.

But when I start the registered version of Total Commander 7.56a, it shows for
a brief moment a small splash screen window (on top of all the other windows on
the screen), then the main window of the application appears in between the
existing windows (see the attached screenshot). (The splash screen window is
hidden after the main window is displayed.)

I confirm this as of wine 1.3.36. Date chooser window can easily go into
background, and be completely covered by main window, in spite of being focused
on (i.e. can receive keyboard events).

Still present in wine 1.5.17, Total Commander 8.01.

I'm sure I have seen similar bugs before. The problem is that the date window
is modal and so the parent window should not be able to receive focus.

Is this still an issue in current (1.7.35 or newer) wine? If so, please attach
terminal output.
