Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. The issue that you reported is one that should be reproducible with the live environment of the Desktop CD of the development release - Lucid Lynx. It would help us greatly if you could test with it so we can work o

I should note that my solution to this problem (which renders XFCE completely unusable) was to switch to Gnome (whose window placement model was fixed right before XFCE's was broken). A couple of hours hunting up widgets, and I don't even notice anymore (and I switch between XFCE 4.4 on an old mach

As for comment #4, there is another opinion: http://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5525 but I admit that an unexpected pop-up window that steals focus, if it is positioned under mouse pointer, could be annoying. AFAIK single alt-tab helps you to get the hidden window visible, if you know ther

My apologies. There is, in fact, another recourse. It is possible to use the task bar (which I do not run) or the window list (from the desktop or tray) to locate any window, if you know it's title, already. -- Xubuntu: newly opened windows are no longer placed on front https://bugs.launchpad.n

Great catch, Matthew. This is the history I was missing on this whole ordeal. Bug 3200 is actually a feature request. In it, the claim is made that new windows popping to the top of of the Z-buffer is a inconvenient and a security risk. Well, obviously, the requester and I disagree on what is i

I had originally filed #371454 which appears to be a duplicate of this. Pulling in the context of a comment from that ticket, it looks like this was a requested behavior, based on this ticket: http://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3200 Aside from that, I'm going to add my voice to the chorus

Despite the fact this bug was reported (in multiple bug reports), the Xfce team seems to be unmoved. All bugs were closed earlier this week, status: Invalid. Their claim is that this behavior--raise new widows regardless of focus--is incorrect, despite the extremely longstanding nature of this be

FWIW, I think the configuration pertaining to new windows should include the following options: * don't raise, don't focus; * raise, but don't focus (currently missing); * raise and focus. For completeness, "focus but don't raise" could be included, but I don't think it makes sense. As things

Second. I find this a serious problem because I use Xfce and XUbuntu mostly for just this feature. I like to be able to click in a window without raising it and I do NOT like pop-up/unexpected windows to steal focus. Xfce makes this possible and I think its perfect. To avoid a religious war, let

Thank you for your response. Yes, with "disabled" I mean "unchecked". [hm, the following argumentation has gotten rather long, sorry, but please bear with me] No, I do not want the new window to have focus. But it doesn't make sense to open a new window somewhere in the background, where it is h

If I understand this correctly, you disabled "Automatically give focus to newly created windows", expecting the system to give the new window focus? Does disabled mean unchecked? I think that if the window is to be brought to the front on opening, it must have focus. That is the expected behaviour
