| 1 person starred this issue and may be notified of changes. | Back to list |
What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. Run marave 2. Open a dialog window, like open, save, text or bg color What is the expected output? What do you see instead? The dialog window appears on top, so I can change value. Instead, it appears behind, I have to move the main window using alt and the left mouse button. What version of the product are you using? On what operating system? Marave r465 on Archlinux x86_64, with PekWM as window manager. Please provide any additional information below. Nothing special appears in the term, except 4 times "<module 'marave' from '/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/marave/__init__.pyc'> Cannot open file '/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/marave/plugins/icons/configure.svg', because: No such file or directory"

From what I read of the activateWindow method's documentation (I tried to modify your sourcecode), it depends on the window manager. I suppose that it's not a bug of pekwm, but a functionnality to doesn't disturb the user when he executes an application in fullscreen (eg it is a good things for games). If I resize marave with alt and right click, the application has now a window decoration, and dialog windows appear now normally. I will ask if they can implement something ;) PS: thanks for Xephyr, it seems to be usefull for testing wm. |
