Package: xfce4-panel
Version: 4.10.0-1.1
Severity: wishlist
When windows button is configured to not show windows from all viewport/
workspace, attention window from other workspace/viewport is not shown.
Behavior like gnome that shows attention window would be more useful.
I attached a patch to implement:
* show attention from other viewport/workspace
* use bold font when window demands attention
* show attention even on active window
The last one is normally not useful, but I found one particular use when
ssh to compile in another tab, using these script, I can force attention:
# turn on with WINDOWID
xprop -id NNNN -f _NET_WM_STATE 32a -set _NET_WM_STATE
_NET_WM_STATE_DEMANDS_ATTENTION
# turn off with WINDOWID or just minimize and restore
xprop -id NNNN -f _NET_WM_STATE 32a -set _NET_WM_STATE ""
