KDE does not seem keep track of window calling
order. That is, when a window closes, keyboard focus should go back to the
window that last had keyboard focus. Examples,
1. While in Nedit
and enter ctrl-f to bring up a search dialog, enter search text, and press enter
<cr>. I expect keyboard focus to go back to the Nedit window which
it does not always do. This requires one to go find the mouse, move back
to the Nedit window and click. All of this is wasted motion and
time.
2. Another
application launches plot windows from the command line. The plot window
correctly receives keyboard focus. Pressing enter <cr> causes the
plot window to close as designed. However, like above, the keyboard focus
does not return to terminal window to receive another command - say a
modification of the previous plot command. Again, this requires one to go
find the mouse, move back - hands off keyboard.
After having been a
CDE user for many years, I find the above behavior a unacceptable - a
bug.
Any information on
how to find information to resolve this problem would be greatly
appreciated. Other than that, I like KDE and really do not want to switch
again. However, recommendations for other window managers would be
welcomed as well.
Thanks in advance,
roym
