https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3D221107 --- Comment #21 from Thomas L=C3=BCbking --- (In reply to comment #20) > Could it be that it's Konsole's fault? There's no "fault" - and certainly not the one of the subprocess. To kwin the scenario looks like konsole was trying to steal the focus from (foreign/unrelated) dolphin, what's therefore denied. Unless you have access to the spawned windows id (to set some relation hint, like altering the client leader or even make konsole a transient for dolphi= n - depending on what is intended) my only idea was to "fake" what the newly instanciated process probably "accidentally" does to workaround the problem: delay the call, ie bind the action to a slot ::deferSpawningKonsole() { m_konsoleSpawnTimer->start(300); // 400? 500? } This solves tow issues for one: 1. The user probably meanwhile released the key "for a while" when the kons= ole window finally appears, thus it should be granted the focus. 2. You won't run into "issues" caused by automatic key repetition (ie. keep= ing Shift+F4 pressed and spawn a hundred konsole windows) - if the delay is abo= ve the keyboards repeat rate. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.=
