[Bug 37393] New: Focus GNOME3 handling never shows window if started inf fullcreen

Bug ID: 37393
           Summary: Focus GNOME3 handling never shows window if started
                    inf fullcreen
           Product: Wine
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: x86
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
          Assignee: [e-mail]
          Reporter: [e-mail]

Since changing to gnome 3 if a application starts in fullscreen it always shows
the desktop 90% of the time. Trying to change it with alt+tab just 'flashes'
the game window and goes back to the desktop

this can be avoided by two ways:
1 (better way) is to use this command line snipped when creating the prefix:

wine reg add "HKCU\Software\Wine\X11 Driver" /v "UseTakeFocus" /t REG_SZ /d
"N"

2 (worse since you lose alt+tab or even seeing the window on the alt list):
disable 'window manager controls windows' on winecfg

This seems like a common bug, but i haven't found duplicates.

I asked the same question in the WineHQ forums:
https://forum.winehq.org/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=23280&p=95984#p95984
Unfortunately, there wasn't any response.

I also found the same bug in an Arch forum:

I will try your solutions

Could a mod mark it as confirmed?

Are you still experiencing this bug? You should currently use 1.8, 1.9 or 2.0
series of wine or staging. The higher the number the more patches are in.

It's easy to believe would think that more people would complain about this.
What's your wien version currently? wine --version?

Since the OP doesn't seem to respond, but another user confirmed this is fixed
for me I think this bug could be closed.
