I installed the program CompizConfig Settings Manager using synaptic. In there, I clicked the button at the top of the center section titled "General Options" and there went to the tab "Focus & Raise Behavior." I enabled "Raise on Click" and now windows work as expected.
I think this should be the default, since it mimics the behavior of the desktop when effects are not enabled (and the system feels broken without it enabled). -- focusing window doesn't bring it above other windows https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/127621 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
