Summary: Window switching (alt-tab) with focus (strictly) under
or follow mouse does not switch all windows and newly
focused window doesn't get focus
Product: kwin
Version: unspecified
Platform: Debian testing
S/Version: Linux
Status: UNCNFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NR
Component: general
AssignedTo: kwin kde org
ReportedBy: sniff lossi ath cx
Version: 3.5.1-1 (using KDE KDE 3.5.1)
Installed from: Debian testing/unstable Packages
S: Linux
It seems that when focus mode is anything else _but_ click to focus, alt-tab switching doesn't go through all the windows, only those that are under mouse pointer it seems. Also occasionally a window NT under pointer does get cycled, but the window which was newly cycled to, doesn't get focus.
Expected behaviour is that ALL windows on workspace are cycled and (temporarily) raised/focused during alt-tabbing, and that last selected window gets focus no matter where mouse pointer is.
The fix for this might be accompanied with a feature that warps mouse pointer to newly focused window when focus follows mouse is active?
kwin version is 3.5.1 on amd64 debian.
