[Pkg-xfce-devel] Bug#793022: xfwm4: Fullscreen app on another X screen does not stay on top when focus moves on other X screen

[Harri Suutari]

Package: xfwm4
Version: 4.10.1-3
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

I watch movies and TV shows with VLC and VDR in full-screen mode on a second
monitor on a second X screen. When I move the mouse pointer to first X screen
and give focus on other window, the windows possibly laying beneath the full-
screen video application pop up and block my view.

If I move pointer back on the video screen and give focus for video window,
then it moves to front again.

This applies to any app that is run in full-screen mode. This bug was not
visible in Wheezy. I have the setting "Focus follows mouse" on, but it's the
same effect with "Click to focus", and any Focus settings don't seem to have an
effect.


Regards,
Harri
