[OpenBox] Window not getting focus if skip_taskbar is set to 'yes'

I have bound gmrun to ALT-F2. When I have skip_taskbar set to yes in rc.xml, gmrun does not get focus. This is quite annoying as I have manually click on it to get the focus.
<application name="gmrun">
<position>
<x>center</x>
<y>center</y>
</position>
<focus>yes</focus>
<layer>above</layer>
<skip_taskbar>yes</skip_taskbar>
</application>
If, however, I remove skip_taskbar as shown below, gmrun get its focus when launched.
<application name="gmrun">
<position>
<x>center</x>
<y>center</y>
</position>
<focus>yes</focus>
<layer>above</layer>
</application>
* Same issue with mplayer/terminal - Doesn't get focus when skip_taskbar is set to 'yes'.

I have the same problem, but, and this part is really bad, I also mostly don't have this issue.
So I can't help except to say I run OB 3.4.7.2 and [sometimes!] have the same issue as you.

  • Swing JTextFeild is not getting focus -  Using jdk-7u17-windows-i586

    Hi All
    Recently I upgraded my Application with Java 1.7 (using jdk-7u17-windows-i586) from java 1.6. Swing component JTextfeilds used to get focus when using java1.6. But after up-gradation to Java 1.7 in few scenarios JTextFeild is not getting focus and I am unable to do any thing with keyboard. Again I have to click on some button with Mouse and need to keep focus using mouse in the textfeild.

  • View in edit window not getting updatet properly

    Hello
    I have some problems with the view in the edit window not getting updatet correctly. I noticed this in spectral view. For example, when I zoom in very much, so I only see about 3 seconds of audio and then select one second of audio and do a time stretch, so it will be two seconds of length, the windows does not update properly.
    Normally the audio behind the strechted selection should move backwards, but often the strechted portion just sort of overlaps it and it doesn't move. When I zoom out and then back in, it seems to be ok.
    I also have had very weird behavior when trying to remove clicks, with the view also getting pretty messed up.
    Does anyone have similar problems with the view not getting updated properly?
    I am running german windows xp, audition is installed in english. I first thought that installing it in english instead of german solves the problems, but unfortunately it didn't.

    How to make a JScrollPane not getting Focus?
    When i tab out from a textfield inside a scroll pane focus is going to ScrollPane .And if i press tab once more then only focus is going to other textField which is outside the scrollpane.
    For me when i press tab from a text field inside a scrollPane ,i should go to textfield out side the scroll pane.

    Hi,
    I've the same problem, that I have to double click on tab
    to step from a textfield with a scrollpane to the next textfield in my panel.

  • Toolbar icons are not getting focus

  • Modal Dialog does not get focus on first click

    Hi,
    Identified an issue in Windows Safari 5 with Modal Dialog boxes. The below is issue.
    When a Message box (Validation message) is displayed to the user the control is not getting transferred to the message box instead it still lies with the parent page.
    For Example:
    A list box is visible with values in parent page, when you click delete, the confirmation message pops up.
    On the mouse click on confirmation message, the focus would be changed to an item in the list box of the parent page and that particular item gets deleted instead of the selected item.
    Understanding:
    -When a Modal dialog box is displayed control is not passed to the Dialog box .
    -Once the user click mouse once then the control is passed to the Dialog box.
    -The second mouse click only the action is performed.

    Work-around: Click on the "title bar" of the modal dialog box. You now have control. If you click other areas of the modal dialog before clicking the title bar, it will usually register behind the box.
    I think Apple forgot the code to 'select the modal dialog' after 'displaying it', which is why the work-around works perfectly.
    It's a common bug that hasn't been fixed yet in 5.x that did not exist in 4.x. I would submit a bug report and hope they fix it in the next update.

  • Custom TextInput itemEditor not getting focus.

    I have an AdvancedDataGrid that has a custom itemEditor on an amounts field. If I do an inline textInput itemEditor everything works fine, but if I separate out the textInput itemEditor into it's own component then when I click on the amounts column it doesn't seem to get focus. What happens is I click once and it appears like the text box has appeared, but there is not cursor, so I can't start typing my amount. I need to click a second time in the cell for the cursor to appear.
    Here are my datagrid columns:
    <datagrids:columns>
            <mx:AdvancedDataGridColumn dataField="Customer" headerText="Cust" editable="false"/>
            <mx:AdvancedDataGridColumn dataField="Balance" headerText="Bal" editable="false"/>
            <mx:AdvancedDataGridColumn dataField="paymentAmountString" headerText="Amount"
                               editable="true" textAlign="right"
                               editorDataField="amountText" itemEditor="com.ihcfs.flex.renderers.AdvancedAmountTextInputRenderer">
            </mx:AdvancedDataGridColumn>
        </datagrids:columns>
    Here is my custom renderer/editor, I've tried both a spark TextInput and an mx:TextInput. They both have the same behavior.
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    <s:MXAdvancedDataGridItemRenderer xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
                                      xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"
                                      xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx"
                                      focusEnabled="true">
        <fx:Script>
            <![CDATA[
                public var amountText:String;
            ]]>
        </fx:Script>
        <s:TextInput id="amountTextInput"
                     width="100%" height="100%"
                     textAlign="right"
                     change="amountText = amountTextInput.text;"
                     focusEnabled="true"
                     editable="true"
                     restrict="[0-9][.]"/>
    </s:MXAdvancedDataGridItemRenderer>
    If I do an inline item editor it works just fine, it's when I move it out to a reusable component that this behavior happens.
    Inline:
    <datagrids:columns>

    Thanks for the help!

    I attempted to do as you said using the following code:
    override public function setFocus():void{
         stage.focus = amountTextInput;
         amountTextInput.setFocus();
    I also tried adding an event handler to my renderer to capture the focus in event and try the same thing:
    <s:MXAdvancedDataGridItemRenderer xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
                                      xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"
                                      xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx"
                                      focusEnabled="true"
                                      focusIn="mxadvanceddatagriditemrenderer1_focusInHandler(event)">
    protected function mxadvanceddatagriditemrenderer1_focusInHandler(event:FocusEvent):void
         amountTextInput.setFocus();
    Neither of these solutions work. I could just go back to using the inline code, but I'd prefer to not copy and paste that code into several different grids.
    Thanks again for the help.

  • Custom screen window not getting closed !

    I have designed a screen and calling that using call screen XXXX starting at 15 5. Sreen does load up. Upon clicking close button(X mark) on the top right side, window is not getting closed.

    Hi Gautham,
    I already have this code in place,
    CLEAR v_ok_code.
      v_ok_code = sy-ucomm.
      CASE v_ok_code.
        WHEN 'CNCL'.
          REFRESH it_input.
          LEAVE TO SCREEN 0.
          WHEN 'TSAVE'.
          PERFORM update_table.
        WHEN OTHERS.
      ENDCASE.
    The thing is that generally for closing(X mark button on top), we dont do any explicit coding. I see some strange behaviour.

  • Windows not gaining focus...

    Hello!
    After recent update (I can't recall having this issue before) windows that previously had focus, but lost it after I opened a new window, do not gain focus after I close the new window. This is very irritating, because now I have to click on the old window all the time, even though it is the top window, to give commands to it.
    The same thing happens also when switching spaces - if I have a window with focus in one space, quickly switch to another to check something (without clicking anywhere) and then go back to the first one, I have to click in the window otherwise I can't write or send commands to it. Even though the cursor is in the window and blinking as if it had focus (if it is an input field).
    A concrete example:
    I am writing this text in Firefox in a textbox on a webpage. I switch spaces forth and back. The cursor is still in the textbox and blinking, but whatever I press nothing happens. Firefox is still the active application (it has the menubar).
    I've tried searching, but wasn't lucky to find anything, is it just me?
    BR,
    stormmind

    It work well in my system. Either on appletview and browser.

  • Why my textfield can not get focus?

    I put a textfield on the first tab of a tabbed panel. I need this textfield to get the focus when I open the first tab. I tried to use grabfocus() method in the constructor of class, but it does not work. Does anybody know why? and how can I solve it?
    Thanks!

    No, I didn't call grab/requestFocus on the event thread.
    My code is like this:
    public class GeneralPane extends JPanel {
    JPanel ltPane;
    private JTextField txtCountry;
    public GeneralPane() {
    initComponents();
    private void initComponents(){
    setLayout(new BorderLayout());
    //Add another Panel to contain Labels and Text fileds
    ltPane = new JPanel();
    FocusListener mFL = new FL();
    txtCountry = new JTextField("US", 20);
    //this listener is used to store the data in the textfield into a variable
    txtCountry.addFocusListener(mFL);
    // add the textfield into ltPane
    mUtil.insertTextPane(txtCountry,ltPane);
    //txtCountry got focus
    //txtCountry.setFocusable(true);
    ltPane.requestFocus();
    //txtCountry.requestFocusInWindow();
    Then in the main program, I create an instance of this class and then use addTab(...) function into the my tabbedPanel.
    The logic is simple, but the textfield still couldn't get focus when I open the tabbedPanel.
