--- Comment #5 from Lothar <loh....@googlemail.com> --- The first what popped in my mind was a note on some of my own project: // FIXME When the window is behind some other window it comes // not in front. Using raise() has no effect on my KDE. // Calling hide();show(); has, but flicker unpleasant activateWindow(); Related Kate code is there: kate/kateapp.cpp-493- win->activateWindow(); kate/kateapp.cpp:492: win->raise(); kate/kateappadaptor.cpp-44- win->activateWindow(); kate/kateappadaptor.cpp:43: win->raise(); kate/qtsingleapp../qtsingleapp..cpp-185- actWin->activateWindow(); kate/qtsingleapp../qtsingleapp..cpp:184: actWin->raise(); And a new Kate bug on MS Windows which may also related: Bug 407288 - Kate doesn't bring existing session into foreground -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
