That is the defintion of 'keyboard focus' ... when you have it, you receive key events, otherwise not. X11 apps are not supposed to bypass this, except by 'grabbing', the keyboard but that may interfere with correct operation of other applications that require key events. Some specific key combinations reserved by the window manager may still work, but you wouldn't be able to type text in any other window. Vkeybd would then require a 'release keyboard' button or some such. The way keyboard focus is given to a window may depend on your window manager's settings. Most will have an option not to interfere with the focus, and in that case it will stay with the current owner until it is explicitly requested by another window. This solves the problem in many cases. But if any other app takes the keyboad focus when the mouse pointer is over any of its windows there is little you can do about that. Wwell behaved apps should of course not do this. -- FA Follie! Follie!
