           Summary: Message Box Focus problems in composite x11 mode
           Product: kde
           Version: 3.5
          Platform: SuSE RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: coolo kde org
        ReportedBy: mpapet yahoo com


Version:           3.5 (using KDE KDE 3.5.0)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs
OS:                Linux

I'm running x11 composite mode with kde 3.5 on suse 9.3 and it works great. \
(novell provided the rpms.)

This may/may not be one or more issues.  I'm happy to provide more \
information if necessary.

This is one example of the behavior:
1. Default transparency behavior in kde 3.5. 
2. Have Konqueror open on some website. Konqueror is opaque. (active \
window) 2. Click on link to download file.
3. Konqueror window becomes inactive, (goes transparent) while the file \
download location message box opens as the active (opaque) window.  Choose \
location and hit "okay." 4. File downloading progress box opens and keeps \
Konqueror inactive(transparent) until I click on the konqueror window.

In this example, I believe after I choose the download location, konqueror \
should return to the browser window while the download progress box \
opens/closes as an inactive window on it's own.

Many kde applications have message boxes popping up before/during/after a \
process is complete that behave in a similar manner.  The message box will \
take over when I really want to work in the application.  With many \
tasks/windows open message boxes stealing focus gets a little confusing.
